BURMA NUCLEAR LINK SUSPECTED
Democratic Voice of Burma, based in Norway, said the defector had been involved in the nuclear programme and smuggled out extensive files and photographs describing experiments with uranium and specialised equipment needed to build a nuclear reactor and develop enrichment capabilities.
The group concluded that Burma is still far from producing a nuclear weapon.
Last month, UN experts monitoring sanctions against North Korea said it was involved in banned nuclear and ballistic missile activities in Iran, Syria and Burma.
