For our GCSE Citizenship course, we have to design a campaign to make people in our local community aware of political prisoners. During our research we found a particular political prisoner called Tun Aung, who is currently being held in Burma. He is 65 years old and is being denied any medical treatment even though he has a pituitary tumor and needs regular treatment.Tun Aung is being kept in a small prison cell with no sanitation and ventilation, and is not allowed to be visited by his family. Please help Tun Aung by signing our petition.

We are currently drafting a formal letter addressed to the embassy regarding the medical negligence Tun Aung is facing. This documentation will be sent out as soon as the final draft is reviewed by our teachers.

This poor man is 65 and sick. Just awful. Thinking of his family and hope they get to see him soon.

its a human rights violation plain and simple. denying a sick old man medical care is just evil.

NO ONE should be treated like this. Especially someone who is sick and needs actual doctors. Free him now.
