Suu Kyi's trial

Aung San Suu Kyi, Myanmar’s former leader, was tried and sentenced on various charges, including election fraud and violating COVID-19 restrictions, after the military seized power in a 2021 coup. Many international observers view her trial as politically motivated, aimed at undermining her influence and legitimacy. Despite her previous international recognition for democracy efforts, her imprisonment has drawn widespread criticism, highlighting concerns about the suppression of political opposition and the erosion of democratic freedoms in Myanmar.
