Myanmar state media say U.S. businessman Adam Castillo has been deported after months in jail

Myanmar's military-run government has deported U.S. businessman Adam Castillo following a three-month imprisonment. State media reported the deportation on Wednesday, marking the release of the former president of the American Chamber of Commerce in Myanmar.

While state media announced the deportation, supporters of Castillo maintained that the charges he faced during his months in detention were fabricated. The case highlights the precarious position of foreign business figures operating under Myanmar's military administration.
