Deposed Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi has been remanded in custody on obscure import law charges, her party’s spokesman said Wednesday as citizens and health workers stepped up a campaign against Monday’s military takeover in the multi-ethnic nation of 54 million people.
The 75-year-old leader will be held until at least Feb. 15 on charges relating to the alleged import and ownership of illegal walkie-talkies, Kyi Toe, a spokesperson for her National League for Democracy, said on his Facebook page. President Win Myint was charged with violating natural disaster management laws.
"According to reliable information, a 14 day arrest warrant was issued against Daw Aung San Su Kyi under the Import and Export Law," he wrote.
