Yangon, Burma – A Myanmar court on Thursday sentenced journalist and Voice of America (VOA) contributor Sithu Aung Myint to two years’ labor.
The Yangon court convicted Sithu Aung Myint under Section 505(a) of the country’s penal code, which relates to denigrating the armed forces.
Sithu Aung Myint is already serving a three-year sentence with labor after a court in October convicted him of incitement.
