YANGON, Myanmar — Lawyers for Myanmar opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi expressed optimism about her case after the only witness allowed to testify for the defense addressed the court in her trial on charges of violating house arrest.
Kyi Win, the defense witness who is a legal expert and a member of Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy party, highlighted what appears to be the defense’s main argument, that the charge against Suu Kyi is unlawful.
The charge against Suu Kyi cites a 1975 state security law, not the more narrowly defined confinement order for her house arrest.
