YANGON, Myanmar (AP) — Neighbors of Myanmar's opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi say about 20 police officers have entered her compound, following reports that an American man was detained after entering her home.
The Myanma Ahlin newspaper reported Thursday that an American man was arrested the previous day for allegedly swimming across a lake and entering Suu Kyi's lakeside home.
The newspaper gave no details of the man's identity or motives.
The police entry into Suu Kyi's compound, which was rare, was reported by neighbors who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals in the military-ruled country.
Suu Kyi has spent more than 13 of the last 19 years under house arrest. Her home is tightly guarded but police are not stationed inside her compound.
