Bangkok (AFP)
The Myanmar military s detention of Aung San Suu Kyi during this week s coup has revived memories of her more than 15 years of house arrest at a lakeside villa in Yangon during the country s last period of junta rule.
Under the cover of darkness early Monday, soldiers took Myanmar s de facto leader who became a beacon for democracy in the 1990s and a Nobel Peace Prize laureate back into custody.
A lawmaker from her National League for Democracy (NLD) party, who requested anonymity, said Suu Kyi was under house arrest again, this time at her official residence in the capital Naypyidaw.
