Myanmar Leader: Jailed Reuters Journalists Can Appeal

Reuters reports Myanmar government leader Aung San Suu Kyi on Thursday said two jailed Reuters journalists can appeal their seven-year sentence, and that their jailing had nothing to do with freedom of expression. Suu Kyi said at the World Economic Forum: “I wonder whether very many people have actually read the summary of the judgment which had nothing to do with freedom of expression at all, it had to do with an Official Secrets Act."
