One of the protestors in Mandalay said that about 40 protestors were arrested when they ran away a military compound after the security forces fired water cannon.

At that time, about 100 people fled, and about 40 out of them were arrested. Eight of them are from our group. Many other protestors were also arrested. I do not know where they are now. We are worried that they will be missing,” said Aung Myo Tun, one of the protestors who was not arrested.
