Daw Suu Continued A Fourth Day In H (r)

Re:Daw Suu continued a fourth day in her car
============================================

The junta's claim of Daw Aung san Suu and Kyi and her two drivers in the 
car had been stopped because she did not have her security team with her 
on the trip were false.  SPDC knew very well that she was on her way to 
meet the NLD supporters in Bassein. It was just an excuse used by the 
SPDC to curb her peaceful political activities. 

How can they let her stay in the car under the heat of the sun knowing 
that she only had dry rations such as biscuits to eat? What 
are the SPDC's security men and a waiting ambulance doing down there 
nearby Daw Aung Suu Kyi's car?

Now, the true intention of the SPDC to cause bodily harm to Daw Aung Suu 
Kyi has become so obvious as she now traveled without the accompaniment 
of other NLD officials. Therefore, we like to warn that the SPDC would 
be held responsible if something went wrong with her health because of 
her car sit-in.
