Myanmar's High Court declines to hear Suu Kyi's appeals in five cases where sentences already commuted

BANGKOK (AP): Myanmar’s Supreme Court has declined to hear special appeals from the country’s ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi against her convictions in five cases of which the head of the military-installed government already pardoned her earlier this month, a legal official said Thursday.

Despite the amnesty, Suu Kyi’s legal team is continuing with the appeal process to prove her innocence, the legal official said.
