Suu Kyi may testify today

Denver Post Wire Report

YANGON, Myanmar — Prosecutors in the trial of Myanmar's pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi have withdrawn nine remaining witnesses, paving the way for her to testify today and suggesting that the military government wants to wrap up the trial.

Nyan Win, one of Suu Kyi's lawyers in her trial on charges of violating terms of her house arrest, said Monday her defense team was unhappy that it was not given sufficient time to consult with her about her planned testimony.
