French business school HEC faces scrutiny for admitting a student linked to a businessman under sanctions for ties to Myanmar's junta. The student, Theint Win Htet, was accepted without proper vetting and later sanctioned by the US for her father's companies' connections to Myanmar's military. Calls for investigation and asset freeze were made by Justice for Myanmar due to fears of money laundering and terrorism.
