Calls to reject Myanmar's "sham" election as evidence revealed of torture by the Junta
As Myanmar prepares for its first elections since the military junta took over in 2021, a new documentary from Al Jazeera’s Investigative Unit has revealed some of the horrific measures being used by security forces to maintain control, including forced conscription and interrogation centres where it is claimed that detainees are often tortured to death. The tactics are seeing people flee the country, and and the number of soldiers deserting the army is on the rise. Guest: Fiona Macgregor, senior producer of Myanmar Exposed, a series of reports by Al Jazeera’s Investigative Unit. Producer: Catherine Zengerer
