A court in Myanmar will deliver a verdict on Dec. 14 for the first of several charges leveled against detained civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi in the aftermath of a military coup, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.
Suu Kyi, who was detained as the junta seized control of the government in February, has been on trial for nearly five months for 11 charges ranging from corruption to the possession of unlicensed walkie-talkies.
