Aung San Suu Kyi is not released after all!

They're at it again! The Burmese leadership is so paranoid about Aung San Suu Kyi that they don't dare let her go free. It is incredible that they are so afraid of her and the force of her appeal to the masses. Surely something has to give soon! When will they be brought to justice for all the atrocities they have perpetuated on the Burmese people? May it be soon that their ediface of control crumbles.

Burma's military authorities were seen entering the compound of opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi Friday night on what was believed to be a mission to extend her house arrest order, despite appeals for her immediate release by the United Nations chief, informed sources said.

The news could not be officially confirmed, but if true, the development would prove a major snub to United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan who on Friday issued a statement in Bangkok appealing to Burma's ruling junta to release Suu Kyi.

The military's last six-month extension of her house arrest was due to expire on Saturday.
