A military-controlled court in Myanmar sentenced deposed civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi to three more years in prison for alleged election fraud in the 2020 general elections, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The conviction on Friday was the fifth verdict against the Nobel peace laureate since the military toppled her civilian government in a coup in February 2021, said the person who asked not to be named as he is not authorized to speak to the media.
