Listen to AudioReport details Burma violence
The New York-based group Human Rights Watch has published a detailed account of the suppression of anti-government protests in Burma earlier this year.
The report says it knows of at least twenty killings by the security forces, five more than the official total.
But Human Rights Watch estimates that the true number of dead must be far higher.
Based on interviews with more than one-hundred witnesses, the report describes beatings, mass arbitrary arrests and torture of detainees.
It also says many more people were detained than the Burmese government admits.
Our coverage includes :
-Interview with Brad Adams, Asia Director of Human Rights Watch on how the report was compiled and how realistic to do arms embargo by UNSC.

Tighter Western sanctions imposed on army-ruled Burma after its bloody crackdown on democracy protests will have little direct impact on the economy, the International Monetary Fund said in a report.
"The overall impact is limited because of restrictions already in place and because the new sanctions cover only a small proportion of trade," the IMF said in its annual review of the former Burma's economy.
Professor Sean Turnell says he agrees with the assessment that social upheavals could occur if the current ecnomic crisis cannot be tackled by the authorities.
