Aung San Suu Kyi urges Myanmar to stay 'united'



YANGON:
Ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi asked the people of Myanmar to stay 'united' in the face of military rule, her lawyers said Tuesday, as she reappeared in a junta court.

The Nobel laureate, and daughter of independence hero General Aung San, has been under house arrest since a February coup that sparked huge pro-democracy protests the junta has tried to crush with deadly force.
