in this file photo taken on January 17, 2020, Myanmar's State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi poses for pictures during a welcoming ceremony for China's President Xi Jinping at the Presidential Palace in Naypyidaw. - Myanmar junta court jails Suu Kyi for six years on August 15, 2022, for corruption.
Officials emerged from the locked gates and announced the opening of the auction by striking a small bell three times. Cut off from her husband and children in England, Suu Kyi spent time playing the piano, reading detective novels and meditating as her status as a democracy leader grew. In 2012, then-US president Barack Obama visited her at the villa and lionized her as an “icon of democracy.”
A junta-controlled court has since jailed her on a litany of charges that critics have slammed as farcical and designed to remove her from politics.
