"Suu Kyi’s detention harsher, lawyer says" by Associated Press | August 26, 2009
YANGON, Myanmar - The conditions of Myanmar democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi’s detention have gotten worse since her conviction this month for violating terms of her previous house arrest, her lawyer said yesterday....
“The present regulations imposed on Daw Aung San Suu Kyi are worse than the previous rules,’’ he said....
Yeah, except that's a LIE (keep reading).
A Myanmar court found Suu Kyi, 64, guilty of sheltering an uninvited American visitor.
Here is why the MSM minimizes that bizarre cover story: Get Your Yettaws Out
The court stipulated eight rules for her new term of house arrest, which were generally seen as slightly more liberal than her previous detention, which kept her in almost complete isolation.
Except for the epileptic lake-swimmer who has disappeared.
Shouldn't he bo on the news with a story to tell?
And that LAWYER LIED, huh?
Now Suu Kyi can receive visitors with prior permission from the authorities, have the right to medical treatment by doctors and nurses, and are allowed to read state-controlled newspapers and magazines and watch state-run television.
Yeah, that's real harsh!
No secret prisons and secret torture for her!
