Bizarre remarks
From AFP
Burma's police chief, Khin Yee's remark about the arrests of some activists:
"They were not arrested. They are just being questioned."
More remarks regarding deported journalists:
"Some people enter the country with tourist visas and don't act like tourists."
"Some people overstep the boundaries by working as journalists. Those who
overstep the boundaries were deported. Actually, we should take legal action
against them, but we didn't do anything to them."
"About six people were deported because they overstepped the boundaries."
