(Reuters) - Myanmar authorities exhumed the body of a 19-year-old woman who was shot dead wearing a T-shirt that read "Everything will be OK" and their examination exonerated police from the killing, state television MRTV said on Saturday.
Kyal Sin, widely known as Angel, died on Wednesday from a shot to the head as protesters came under fire from security forces trying to end demonstrations against the Feb. 1 coup. She has become an icon of the protest movement.
