Suu Kyi verdicts may be delayed
VERDICTS in the trial of Burma's democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi may be postponed again because of the continued hospitalisation of the American defendant who swam to her home, her lawyer said yesterday.
A court was scheduled to deliver the verdicts today, ending the 64-year-old Nobel laureate's nearly three-month-long trial on charges that she violated the terms of her house arrest by allowing American John Yettaw to stay there for two nights.
But Suu Kyi's lawyer Nyan Win said he expected the verdicts to be delayed again if Yettaw remains in the hospital.
