UN human rights envoy meets political prisoners
The new UN human rights envoy for Burma has met five prominent political prisoners in Rangoon's Insein Prison, according to Aye Win, a spokesman for the UN Information Center in Rangoon.
A UN special envoy arrived in Burma today to pave the way for a possible visit by the UN secretary-general that would be politically delicate because of the continuing trial of opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi.
