(Reuters) -Myanmar's detained former leader Aung San Suu Kyi is suffering from worsening heart problems and needs urgent medical attention, her son said on Friday, in an appeal for her immediate release from "cruel and life-threatening" custody.
Kim Aris told Reuters that his 80-year-old mother, in military custody since a 2021 coup that deposed her government, had asked to see a cardiologist about a month ago, but he had been unable to determine whether her request had been granted.
