The reports that Deputy Prime Minister and Union Minister for Home Affairs Lt. Gen. Soe Htut and Union Minister for Union Cabinet Office Lt. Gen. Yar Pyae visited former State Counsellor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, who was convicted in Nay Pyi Taw Prison, are not true and are just rumors, said Major General Zaw Min Tun, spokesperson of the State Administration Council (SAC).
When asked about the news that the Union Minister for Home Affairs and his team visited Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, who was convicted in Nay Pyi Taw Prison, "There was no meeting. It's just a rumor," Major General Zaw Min Tun replied to The Daily Eleven newspaper.
Some news media reported Union Ministers Lt. Gen. Soe Htut and Lt. Gen. Yar Pyae visited Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, who was convicted in Nay Pyi Taw Prison, in May and June.
In that meeting, they reported that Daw Aung San Suu Kyi was asked to participate in peace issues and prevent violence in the current political situation, and that Daw Aung San Suu Kyi did not comment back.
Currently, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi has been sentenced to 32 years in prison for 19 cases, and two years of her sentence was reduced on December 6, 2021.
