Myanmar's Suu Kyi sentenced to three years for electoral fraud | The Guardian Nigeria News - Nigeria and World News

A Myanmar junta court sentenced ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi to three years in jail "with hard labour" on Friday, for electoral fraud in the 2020 polls that her party won in a landslide, a source said.

The latest sentence, handed down by the closed court, takes the total jail time the Nobel laureate and democracy figurehead is facing to two decades. Ex-president Win Myint, who was on trial for the same charge, also received a jail sentence of three years, the source said.The military alleged widespread voter fraud during the November 2020 election, won resoundingly by Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy , although international observers said the poll was largely free and fair.

Myanmar was plunged into crisis following the military’s power grab last year, with swathes of the country ravaged by fighting and the economy in free fall. The junta declared a state of emergency after ousting Suu Kyi’s government, and has previously said elections would be held by August 2023.

I really wish INEC chairman of my country see this… incase Mr. INEC Chairman is ready for things like this to prevail on him …
