Quintana left Burma with bare Hand.

UN Human Rights Envoy to Burma Tomás Ojea Quintana expressed “regret” that he was not given the opportunity to meet with Burma's detained opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi as he concluded a five-day visit to the country.

At a press conference at Rangoon's international airport, he said that it will be difficult to hold free and fair elections in Burma and that he saw no signs that Burma's more than 2,100 political prisoners will be released.
