On 24 February 2021, as workers who produce for Zara (Inditex) called on the fashion giant to issue a statement promising that no workers will be fired for joining anti-coup strikes or demonstrations in Myanmar, military authorities issued warrants for the arrest of eight union leaders of the Confederation of Trade Unions Myanmar (CTUM), including U Myo Myint Saw, president of the Yangon Circular Train Union (part of Myanmar Transport Federation - MTF). The other union leaders under charge are Ma Soe Lay, Wai Yan Shine, Myo Lay, Ma Kyi Kyi Tun, Soe Ko Ko Naing, Ma Swe Swe Khaing, and U Myo Han.
