Police said this week they had arrested a suspect in the rape of a toddler - nicknamed Victoria - at a private nursery school in the administrative capital, Naypyitaw, in May. "We need an explanation that people can accept and justice for the kid," said 33-year-old protest organiser Aung Htike Min. Demonstrators were sceptical about the account given by Myanmar police, a force that is widely perceived as corrupt or incompetent. Ye Myint Win, 37, who joined Saturday's protest along with his wife and 2-year-old daughter, told Reuters authorities should take child rape cases more seriously. "I found it very suspicious and I don't trust the investigation of CID," he said.
