Aung San Suu Kyi backs jailing of journalists

Here’s the law they are accused of breaking.

Among other garbage:
“3. (1) If any person for any purpose prejudicial to the safety or interests of the State—
(a) approaches, inspects, passes over or is in the vicinity of, or enters, any prohibited place; …he shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which may extend, where the offence is committed in relation to any work of defense… to fourteen years and in other cases to three years.”

I’ve left nothing out that would reverse that meaning. If you go into an area that is controlled by the military (“any work of defense”), you can get 14 years. The entire land mass, rivers and sea are controlled by the military.
