Myanmar Deports US Businessman Adam Castillo After Three Months in Detention
Myanmar's military-backed government deported Adam Castillo, a US businessman and former American Chamber of Commerce president, after three months in jail on breach of trust charges linked to alleged violations of AmCham regulations.

His family and Global Reach, a nonprofit assisting his case, expressed relief and hope for improved US-Myanmar relations.
