Aung San Suu Kyi challenges the military to: "stop us if you dare"

Miss Suu Kyi's challenge to the restriction on her movements by the military is vindicated when she is prevented from boarding a train out of Rangoon. She is later escorted back to her home by the military. The US condemns Burma's treatement of her.

Burmese military and police officials

Concern grows as to Aung San Suu Kyi's whereabouts after Burmese soldiers forced her to return to Rangoon, following a standoff at the outskirts of the Capital. But she later appears in public safe and well. Her movements have been restricted since being released from six years of house arrest in 1995.

Decade long struggle

She has spent most of the last 12 years under house arrest.

Aung San Suu Kyi has been a symbol of democratic resistance to Burma's military government since the election of 1990. Her National League for Democracy won that election but the junta refused to hand over power. She has spent most of the time since then in captivity.
