The son of Myanmar’s deposed leader Aung San Suu Kyi yesterday demanded France’s help in seeking independently verified proof of his mother’s life after she was transferred to house arrest, her lawyers said.

The country’s junta chief-turned-president Min Aung Hlaing on Thursday ordered the 80-year-old Nobel Peace Prize winner to be moved, five years after putting her into detention in a coup.

But her son, Kim Aris, says he has still not heard from his mother, who remains massively popular inside Myanmar.
