Myanmar's ruling junta rejects a request for a visit between a Southeast Asian envoy and deposed leader Aung San Suu Kyi.

Myanmar's ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi has asked the court to reduce the frequency of the hearings on health grounds.

Suu Kyi, 76, was deposed in a coup by the military junta, which sparked a mass uprising and a brutal crackdown on dissent early this year.

A court in Myanmar denies a motion by ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi’s defense team to disqualify prosecution evidence against her in relation to a sedition charge that could see her jailed for up to two years.
