YANGON, Nov 19 (AFP): Myanmar's detained democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi left her home for about one hour Monday for a meeting in a government guest house, witnesses told the news agency.
Witnesses said a convoy picked up the Nobel peace prize winner from her home, where she has been confined for 12 of the last 18 years, and took her to the guest house often used for official meetings.
Government officials and members of Aung San Suu Kyi's own National League for Democracy (NLD) party could not immediately be reached to confirm details of the meeting.
She had been taken to the same guest house on October 25 and November 9 to meet with a junta official appointed as a liaison with her.
