Myanmar's Suu Kyi Health Worsening in Military Custody, Son Says
Kim Aris warns that inadequate medical care is endangering Aung San Suu Kyi's life and calls for the release of all political prisoners to protect Myanmar's future.
- Aung San Suu Kyi, the former leader of Myanmar, has been held by the military authorities following the February 2021 coup that removed her from power.
- The military justified the takeover by alleging widespread election fraud despite her party's landslide victory and no evidence found by monitors.
- Her son, Kim Aris, appealed on September 5 from London for her immediate release due to worsening heart problems and denied medical access.
- Kim Aris emphasized that without thorough medical assessments, her current heart condition cannot be confirmed, and it remains uncertain whether she is still alive.
- The detention has led to ongoing violence and international criticism, with western governments condemning the military’s power consolidation and calling for all political prisoners’ release.
