Description:
"...In the light of the foregoing, the Working Group renders the following opinion:
The deprivation of liberty of Aung San Suu Kyi is arbitrary, being in
contravention of articles 9, 10, 19 and 20 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights,
and falls within categories II and III of the categories applicable to the consideration of
cases submitted to the Working Group.
18. The Working Group is concerned that the Government not only did not comply with its
Decision 8/1992 to remedy the situation of Aung San Suu Kyi, who was released from house
arrest only in 1995, but again arbitrarily deprived her of her liberty from 22 September
to 6 May 2002..."
