Myanmar's military had Prime Minister Aung San Suu Kyi ousted from power and given prison sentences. Now the junta may be showing some leniency. Reports suggest she could be released from prison and placed under house arrest as part of an act of clemency on the occasion of a religious ceremony next week. Military rejects accusations of atrocities against civilians and justifies its actions by citing the fight against "terrorists" who want to destabilize the country. The junta is still cracking down on any expressions of solidarity with SuuKyi.
