Myanmar court sentences Aung San Suu Kyi to another three years for ‘election fraud’
Aung San Suu Kyi has now been sentenced to 20 years in prison on 11 counts

Last month, a court in military-ruled Myanmar convicted Ms Suu Kyi, 77, on more charges, adding six years to an earlier 11-year prison sentence.
