Myanmar police file additional charge against Aung San Suu Kyi - lawyer
Myanmar police have filed a second charge against former leader Aung San Suu Kyi, after the military deposed her and seized power in a coup on Feb. 1, her lawyer said on Tuesday.
She has already been charged with importing walkie talkies, but lawyer Khin Maung Zaw told local media she was facing a second charge of violating the country's National Disaster Law. (Writing by Poppy Elena McPherson; Editing by Alex Richardson)
