Burma's opposition says 15 supporters of detained pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi have been released by military authorities.

They were arrested last month as they marched to Ms Suu Kyi's house demanding her freedom.

The May arrests came as the oppostion National League for Democracy marked the anniversary of the party's victory in 1990 elections.

The result was never recognised by Burma's ruling generals.
