	Burma official says no restrictions on Suu Kyi
	----------------------------------------------
    RANGOON, Oct 25 (Reuter) - Burmese democracy leader Aung San
Suu Kyi is free to leave her house as she pleases, but earlier
this week she was urged to stay inside to avoid meeting with
student protesters, a senior government official said on Friday.
    The official told Reuters that Suu Kyi was not restricted in
her movements. However, earlier this week security officers from
the government and her National League for Democracy (NLD) party
urged the Nobel Peace laureate not to leave her residence
because students were staging a sit-in protest nearby, he added.
    'People in charge of security, our people and those from the
NLD, suggested to her it was not safe for her to go out because
kids were having a sit-in protest at a junction nearby,' the
official said. 'She understood and she complied.
    'But there are no restrictions on her at all,' he added.
Diplomats quoted senior NLD official Tin Oo as saying earlier
this week that Suu Kyi, who was released from six years of house
arrest in July 1995, was under virtual house arrest and had been
confined to her compound.
    Up to 1,000 university students staged a rare sit-in protest
early on Wednesday at an intersection about two km (1.2 miles)
from Suu Kyi's residence.
    NLD deputy chairman Kyi Maung was detained for questioning
on Wedneday morning for his role in the protests, after he was
seen speaking to two students before the demonstration. The
official said Kyi Maung was still detained at a government guest
house, and did not say when he would be released.

I heard it on NPR at today around 2:00PM. SLORC order her
not to leave home. Did anyone else hear anything different?
