Aung San Suu Kyi sentenced to 4 more years in prison – CBC News

January 10, 2022 Campaign News

Aung San Suu Kyi has been sentenced to four more years in prison on charges of illegally importing and possessing walkie-talkies and violating coronavirus restrictions, reports Canada’s CBC News.

“Throwing a plethora of criminal charges at Aung San Suu Kyi … reeks more of desperation than confidence,” said Mark Farmaner, director of Burma Campaign UK.

“A new mass movement was born which doesn’t depend on a single leader. There are hundreds of small groups organizing and resisting in different ways, from peaceful protest, boycotts and armed resistance.”
