American citizen John Yettaw, sentenced to seven years' hard labour for swimming to the lakeside home of democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi, gestures at a military airport in Bangkok on following his release from military-ruled Myanmar. The 54-year-old's release was secured by US Senator Jim Webb, who is due to visit Cambodia this month. Suu Kyi remains in detention, despite growing international calls for her release.
