Former State Counselor and the Chairwoman of the National League for Democracy (NLD) Aung San Suu Kyi refused to acknowledge the existence of an anti-government entity that is resisting the State Administration Council in parallel in current political crisis.
She confessed this statement during the hearing of the court trial in response to the questions raised by the prosecutors if she acknowledges the NUG/CRPH and the PDF’. Since this confession statement was made by Suu Kyi before the court, will it be an official record and become a kind of legal precedent, a source with knowledge of the case told the NP News.
“She said ‘What is NUG/CRPH? And what is PDF and who are they?’ She said she isn’t aware of those entities,” the source told NP News.
Her lawyers made a written record of what she had confessed before the court with respect to the NUG/CRPH and the PDF that meant to be ‘nothing to do with her’.
The former State Counselor did not only refuse to recognize the existence of the NUG/CRPH and the PDF but she also asked the prosecutors what they are and who they are referring to those groups, the source continued. Therefore, the prosecutors made a short clarification to her about the activities and courses of what the NUG/CRPH and the PDF did or are undertaking.
“She just said ‘Oh, is that so? I do not know them,” the source said.
Such messages of what the former State Counselor confessed before the court are usually timely reported directly to Aung Kyi Nyunt, one of the leading personnel of the CRPH (Committee Representing Pyidaungsu Hluttaw) within 24 hours, confirmed the NP News’ source who is the acquaintance of the NUG. Thus, personnel of the NUG and the CRPH including Aung Kyi Nyunt are extremely anxious if the former State Counselor is released from prison by any means, the source added.
“They take that it is against them that Daw Aung San Suu Kyi said she doesn’t acknowledge their existence as the NUG/CRPH or the PDF. That is why they are afraid of and they have concerns if there will be a chance in which Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and the international community can meet and have dialogue,” told the source.
Hence, it becomes a dilemma or puzzle for the NUG/CRPH with regarding Suu Kyi and how they will be dealing this issue forward.
The Facebook page of the National League for Democracy was grabbed by the NUG’s intimate acquaintances from those who are still ranked as the NLD’s top leading role and still residing within the country.
According to the abovementioned source, the NUG has currently chosen a coercive course by continuously releasing offensive statements via the ‘NLD Facebook page’ without the concurrences of the former State Counselor Aung San Suu Kyi.
