American journalist Danny Fenster was released from prison on Monday in military-ruled Myanmar and was on a flight out of the country, his employer said, three days after he was jailed for 11 years in a ruling that drew international condemnation.
Fenster, 37, the managing editor of independent online magazine Frontier Myanmar, was arrested in May and sentenced to prison Friday for incitement and violations of immigration and unlawful assembly laws.He was among dozens of media workers detained since the Feb. 1 military coup that triggered nationwide protests and strikes in an outpouring of anger over the abrupt end of a decade of tentative steps towards democracy in Myanmar.
