    SEPTEMBER 2020 1 SEPTEMBER 2020 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS MONTH IN REVIEW 4 CHRONOLOGY 7 ● POLITICAL PRISONERS 7 ○ ARRESTS 7 ○ CHARGES 8 ○ SENTENCES 12 ○ RELEASES 13 ○ ARRESTS BY EAO 14 ○ RELEASES BY EAO 14 ○ DISAPPEARANCES 14 ● RESTRICTIONS ON CIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHTS 14 ● REFERENCES 22 SEPTEMBER 2020 3 MONTH IN REVIEW Freedom of Speech and Expression September 15 was the UN International Democracy Day. Democracy is “a form of government in which the ​ people have the authority to choose their governing legislation.” However, the values and standards of democracy have not yet been established in Burma and the people’s authority over their daily lives and fundamental rights is fading. It is clearly shown that Burma is deviating from the path of democracy as those who exercise their right to freedom of speech and expression which is a fundamental right in democratization, face not only oppression and restrictions but arbitrary detentions and arrests. This September, freedom of speech and expression became more severely restricted. A total of 34 students and members of student unions from Rangoon, Mandalay, Meiktila Monywa, Pakokku and Pyay Townships were charged under Section 19 of PAPPL or Section 505(a)(b) of the Penal Code or Section 25 of the Natural Disaster Management Law for staging protests in related to the conflict in Arakan. Among them, 23 students were formally arrested and one was sentenced. In addition to this, four civilians were arrested. Moreover, Sithu Aung a.k.a Saung Kha was fined under Section 19 of PAPPL for protesting to reinstate internet services in Arakan and Chin states.
