Front Line is deeply concerned following reports of the arrest and detention of another five members of the '88 Generation Student Group in the early hours of 13 October 2007. The five are Htay Kywe, a former leader of the pro-democracy student protests in 1988 and four other members of the group: Mie Mie (also known as Thin Thin Aye), Ko Aung Thu, Zaw Htet Ko Ko and Hein Htet (also known as Aung Gyi). All five were arrested, along with a sympathiser who had been helping them, when security forces raided the hide-out where they had evaded arrest since the crackdown on opposition groups by Burmese military leaders.
