Myanmar cuts Aung San Suu Kyi's sentence again by a sixth, lawyer says

Myanmar's ​detained ​former ‌leader Aung San Suu ​Kyi has been ‌given a further one-sixth reduction in her sentence as part ‌of an amnesty, ‌a member of her legal team said on Thursday.

The ⁠Nobel ​laureate ⁠received a similar sentence reduction ⁠in a wider amnesty earlier ​this month. The reduction means ⁠she has about 18 years ⁠left ​to serve, the legal team member ⁠said, declining to be identified ⁠by ⁠name.
