Myanmar moves former leader Aung San Suu Kyi to house arrest and pardons 3,300 prisoners | BBC News


The military government in Myanmar has said it has pardoned 3,300 prisoners and has moved the country’s former leader Aung San Suu Kyi from prison to house arrest.

State media, quoting a spokesman for the junta, said extremely hot weather had caused Miss Suu Kyi and other elderly prisoners to be relocated as a precaution against heat stroke.
