Aung San Suu Kyi put on trial (Second Lead)May 14th, 2009 - 1:40 pm ICT by IANS Yangon, May 14 (DPA) Myanmar opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi was put on trial Thursday on charges of allowing a US national to visit her home, where she has been under detention for the past six years. Suu Kyi, 63, the 1991 Nobel Peace Prize winner, stood trial at Yangon’s Insein Prison for a case involving herself, her maid, her doctor and US national John William Yethaw, who swam to her house on Inya Lake last week and spent three nights there before swimming away and being arrested. After an initial hearing, the trial was scheduled to be continued May 18, Suu Kyi’s attorney Kyi Win said. The Nobel laureate was taken from her family compound Thursday and kept at Insein Prison after the hearing. If found guilty, Suu Kyi could face a sentence of three to five years in jail for allowing the unauthorised visit, he said. Suu Kyi’s current sentence was due to expire May 27. Myanmar’s ruling military junta has scheduled a general election next year, and it is deemed unlikely that it would want Suu Kyi to be free during the polls. Suu Kyi heads the National League for Democracy, which won the 1990 polls by a landslide but has been denied power by the military for the past 19 years. “This is the cunning plan of the regime to put Daw (Mrs) Aung San Suu Kyi in continuous detention beyond the six years allowed by the law they used to justify (her) detention,” said Aung Din, executive director of the US Campaign for Burma. Yethaw, 53, was arrested May 6 while swimming away from Suu Kyi’s house. Suu Kyi, known to be in poor health, has been kept in near-isolation for the past six years with only weekly visits by her doctors allowed and occasional visits by UN special envoys. Only her two domestic helpers have permission to stay in the house. Suu Kyi, the only Nobel Peace Prize laureate currently under detention, was interrogated last week about Yethaw’s visit. She reportedly told authorities that she deemed the visit “illegal” and “unacceptable” and had kept Yethaw downstairs in her home-cum-jail for the entire time, sources said. Suu Kyi is the daughter of Aung San, an independence hero who was assassinated in 1948. The former expatriate returned to Myanmar in 1988 to tend to her ailing mother and got caught up in the country’s pro-democracy movement, of which she quickly became a leading figure. She has spent 13 of the past 19 years under house arrest. There are more than 2,500 political prisoners in Myanmar jails. - Myanmar's Aung San Suu Kyi taken to prison (lead) - May 14, 2009 - Myanmar's Aung San Suu Kyi to be shifted to prison - May 14, 2009 - Indian foreign secretary meets Suu Kyi - Jun 22, 2011 - After Nobel prize, Suu Kyi felt Myanmar was not forgotten - Jun 16, 2012 - Suu Kyi released -- finally (Lead) - Nov 13, 2010 - Dalai Lama meets fellow Nobel icon Suu Kyi - Jun 20, 2012 - Suu Kyi told PM about `difficulties' - May 30, 2012 - Myanmar allows US officials to meet arrested swimmer - May 14, 2009 - India invites Myanmar's Suu Kyi - Jul 23, 2011 - Suu Kyi to visit Britain - Apr 18, 2012 - Aung San Suu Kyi's trial resumes amid tight security - Jul 10, 2009 - Suu Kyi to visit Britain, address parliament - May 21, 2012 - Aung San Suu Kyi - also a style icon - May 29, 2012 - It's victory of people, says Suu Kyi - Apr 02, 2012 - Obama urges Burmese military regime to free Suu Kyi - Jun 19, 2010 Tags: 1991 nobel peace prize, aung san suu, aung san suu kyi, cunning plan, domestic helpers, family compound, insein prison, inya lake, military junta, nobel laureate, nobel peace prize, nobel peace prize laureate, nobel peace prize winner, occasional visits, opposition leader, peace prize winner, poor health, san suu kyi, spent three, us campaign for burma

STATE Department je u četvrtak objavio da je ispitivanje mjesta, gdje je čelnica mianmarske oporbe Aung San Suu Kyi uhićena prošli tjedan, iznijelo dokaze da se radi o "unaprijed smišljenoj zasjedi" koju su izveli "vladini plaćenici". Dobitnica Nobelove nagrade za mir uhićena je tijekom političke turneje i od tada je zatvorena u tajnom logoru vladajuće hunte u Yangonu, 40 kilometara od glavnog grada Rangoona. Dužnosnici američkog veleposlanstva u Yangonu posjetili su Aung San Suu Kyi 30. svibnja nakon napada na nju i na njezinu stranku, izjavio je glasnogovornik State Departmenta Philip Reeder. "Otkrili su da je na automobil Aung San Suu Kyi izvedena zasjeda", dodao je. "Okolnosti i svjedočanstva ljudi iz regije pokazali su da su napad izveli vladini plaćenici". "Pozivamo Mirovno vijeće države i razvoja (SPDC, na vlasti) da iznese sve podatke o poginulima, ranjenim i nestalim osobama", dodaje se u priopćenju State Departmenta. "Progon i izolacija Aung San Suu Kyi i drugih članova njene stranke nedopustivi su. Pozivamo SPDC da ih odmah oslobode", navodi se u tekstu priopćenja State Departmenta. (Hina) bis
