Aung San Suu Kyi's son 'extremely worried' about his mother's health


LONDON (Reuters): The son of Aung San Suu Kyi, Myanmar's detained former leader, said he was "extremely worried" about his mother's health, saying she was struggling to eat and was being refused permission to see an outside doctor.

The 78-year-old Nobel laureate, who has been detained for more than two years, has experienced bouts of dizziness and vomiting, and is suffering from a serious gum disease, her son, Kim Aris (pic), who lives in Britain, told Reuters.
