YANGON, Myanmar — Detained Myanmar opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi will be put on trial today on unspecified charges in connection with the intrusion of an American who sneaked uninvited into her compound, a spokesman for her party said.

Nyan Win said he was informed of the plan to try Suu Kyi and two women who live with her by her lawyer Kyi Win. The three were taken to Yangon’s Insein Prison early today. An American man, John William Yettaw, was arrested last week for allegedly swimming a lake to secretly enter Suu Kyi’s home and remain for two days. Yettaw’s motives were unclear.
