Myanmar President Min Aung Hlaing has cut all prisoners’ sentences by one-sixth, a blanket measure that grants deposed leader Aung San Suu Kyi’s sentence a further reduction, according to a member of her legal team.
Thursday’s measure comes to mark a public holiday, according to a statement published by the presidential office. Amnesties typically happen as Myanmar marks Independence Day in January and its New Year in April.
