BANGKOK -- Japanese freelance journalist Yuki Kitazumi remains unharmed after his detention by Myanmar security forces, the Japanese Embassy said Friday, marking the first update on his condition since the arrest nearly a week ago.
The 45-year-old Kitazumi told Japanese Ambassador Ichiro Maruyama in a call Friday that he has "not been mistreated" by authorities, and that there are no problems with his health, according to the embassy.
