Ross Dunkley sentenced to one month in prison

Mizzima – The cofounder of the Myanmar Times, Ross Dunkley, was sentenced to one month imprisonment and fined 100,000 kyat (about US$ 142) on Thursday for violating the Burmese Immigration act.

The Australian journalist will not have to serve the sentence, however, because he was detained for 44 days in Insein Prison following his arrest.
