A famous songwriter, Aung Naing San, who is a pro-democracy supporter, had been embroiled in a long-standing social media row with Ms Kyaw. He was arrested last week after liking the photo of her lying in her car. “Death is sad,” he posted on Facebook on 1 June, “but because there is personal hurt and hatred I clicked satisfied.” The former friends fell out in 2009 and he had criticised Ms Kyaw for supporting the coup.
