Suu Kyi challenged by her brother over villa

-

Burma’s leader Aung San Suu Kyi, condemned by the internatio­nal community for her handling of the Rohingya crisis, is facing a court challenge from her own brother over ownership of the family home.

Aung San Oo is claiming half the value of the colonial-style villa where his sister was held for 15 years under house arrest. A previous court decision had awarded the house to Miss Suu Kyi, but Mr Oo has now appealed to Burma’s supreme court.
