Journalist Danny Fenster, managing editor of Frontier Myanmar, was detained at Yangon International Airport on May 24 as he was trying to fly back to metro Detroit to see his family.
Since then, there has been an outpouring of support and calls for his release from journalists, politicians, and the general public.
Irish rock band U2 tweeted their support for Fenster on June 29, writing that journalism is not a crime.
U.S. Rep. Andy Levin, D-Bloomfield Hills, has been a major supporter of Fenster and his family, repeatedly calling for his immediate release.
