Myanmar's Suu Kyi marks third month under house arrest
Myanmar's deposed civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi completed a third month under military-ordered house arrest Saturday (May 1) - a period marked by scatter-gun criminal charges and apparent isolation from the chaos engulfing the country.
The nation has been plunged into violence since the military deposed the Nobel laureate in a Feb 1 coup, ending Myanmar's brief tryst with democracy.
The resumption of junta rule sparked a wave of protests and a brutal crackdown on the pro-democracy movement, in which security forces have killed more than 750 people, according to a local monitoring group.
