Myanmar’s most famous fortune teller – known as ET – on Wednesday submitted a petition to His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn regarding Koh Tao murder suspects Zaw Lin and Win Zaw Htun, who have been sentenced to death in Thailand.

 

The letter was submitted via Thai Ambassador to Myanmar Jukr Boon-Long at the Thai embassy in Yangon, the Shan News Agency reported.

 

The two Myanmar men were convicted in the murder of two British backpackers David Miller and Hannah Witheridge on Koh Tao, Surat Thani province, in 2014.

In early March, the Appeal Court upheld death sentences handed down to the two Myanmar migrant workers.

 

After the verdict, dozens of Myanmar citizens and monks gathered in front of the Thai Embassy in Yangon to protest the Appeals Court's order.

but we don't get to know what was said in the letter?

 

I was going to make the ET phone home joke but I feel too badly for everyone in this case.

Hopefully the petition says: I have seen the truth. Please can we have a fair review of the trial verdict and then find the real culprits .........

Sadly, Burmese people have very little recognition here....especially lowly labourers.

 

Neither do the majority of Thais
