Aung San Suu Kyi has more accusations that the UN is calling for reconciliation and Aung San Suu Kyi News

According to his lawyer, Myanmar’s ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi is facing four additional criminal charges before the country’s second-largest city court, according to his lawyer, when the United Nations called for reconciliation of Southeast Asian violence in the nation.

Aung San Suu Kyi’s legal team had little information about the latest charges, except that they were related to corruption and that the two Min Thu were also opposed to his former government minister, Min Min Soe’s lawyer told Reuters news agency on Monday.

“There are allegations of corruption. We don’t know why they complain? Or for what reasons? We’ll find out about that, ”he said.

In new cases, Aung San Suu Kyi, 76, may be linked judicial proceedings in three different cities.

The Nobel Peace Prize winner has been on trial since the army took power in a February 1 coup and is being tried in the capital Naypyidaw for illegal importation and possession of walkie-talkie radios and breaching coronavirus protocols under the disaster management law. .

He is also accused in a Yangon court of allegedly violating the law on official secrecy, with a maximum sentence of 14 years in prison.

His legal team dismisses all charges.

Attorney General Khin Maung Zaw said on Monday that an examination against the prosecution witness revealed that the attack on Aung San Suu Kyi’s house was carried out illegally without an order.

In a press conference on Monday, army spokesman Zaw Min Tun did not mention any new charges.

He said he had broken the constitution when the post of state councilor was created, saying it came between the president of the mandate structure and the vice-presidents.

It was not clear that this allegation was among the new charges.

Aung San Suu Kyi was banned from the presidency because her husband and children are foreigners. After his party won the country’s first election, he was appointed to a new role – a state councilor – and served in that position as the de facto leader of the country before the generals took power.

A call for reconciliation

On Monday, the UN Human Rights Council passed a resolution condemning the human rights violations committed by the military against Rohingya and other minorities in Myanmar and called for a reconciliation process in the country.

The resolution presented by Pakistan on behalf of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation was approved without a vote by the Geneva-based council.

China, one of the 47 councilors, said it could not agree to the consensus, but still did not insist on voting on the text.

“Unfortunately, the human and human rights situation of Rohingya Muslims remains dire, so the council calls for a collective call on Myanmar to immediately stop human rights violations and defend their basic rights,” said Pakistani UN Ambassador Khalil Hashmi to Geneva.

The text itself calls for “constructive and peaceful dialogue and reconciliation” in line with the will and interests of the people of Myanmar, including Rohingya Muslims and other ethnic minorities.

It also requires a resolution stop the fight immediately and targeting all enemies, civilians, and all violations of human rights and human rights laws.

He expressed “grave concern” over allegations of serious human rights violations and abuses, such as arbitrary arrests, arrests, torture, forced labor and the “intentional killing and mutilation of children.”

Thomas Andrews, the UN special rapporteur on the situation in Myanmar’s rights, told the Human Rights Council last week that the army had committed crimes against humanity since it took control and condemned the international community for not “ending this nightmare”.

UN Human Rights chief Michelle Bachelet also told the council that the situation in the country has “turned from a political crisis to a multidimensional human rights catastrophe”.

Nearly 900 people have been killed since the coup, and about 200,000 have been forced to flee their homes by the UN.

The country is also suffering from a separate health emergency after an increase in the number Covid19 cases.

The military general says there were 3,400 new cases of coronavirus on Sunday, less than 50 a day in early May. Overall, the country has reported at least 192,000 cases and more than 3,800 deaths, although the actual number is likely to be much higher than the collapse of the health care system – and the country’s COVID-19 response – after the coup.

On Tuesday, Myanmar media reported that crowds were firing on people buying medical oxygen in the South Dagon district of Yangon.
