The new charge follows an investigation by the Anti-Corruption Commission into several accusations leveled at Suu Kyi. It found her "guilty of committing corruption using her rank," the state-run Global New Light of Myanmar said. She was charged under the Anti-Corruption Law section 55, and if found guilty could face a maximum prison sentence of 15 years.
Suu Kyi was overthrown from her position of state counselor and de facto leader of the country when the military seized power in a February 1 coup. She has been held in detention since then and charged with a series of crimes her lawyers and supporters consider to be politically motivated.
The commission said Suu Kyi "misused her authority" in renting land and a building to open the Daw Khin Kyi Foundation headquarters, where she served as chairperson. It said an application for the land to establish a Horticulture Vocational School as part of the foundation in the capital, Naypyidaw, was not carried out "in line with the procedures but with her power and authority."

Hell, the DOJ has been holding the people who entered the US Capital in solitary confinement and without bail since January and haven’t charged them.
For her to get accused of some small potatoes real estate finagling is rather suspicious.
Either the junta doesn't have the technical expertise to root out the election corruption and "discovered" another reason to keep her restrained, or they never had a real reason to suspect her in the first place.
“Hell, the DOJ has been holding the people who entered the US Capital in solitary confinement and without bail since January and haven’t charged them.”
Yes. We are under a junta. A dictatorship of an unelected illegitimate cartel.
It’s bad.
She sucked up to China.
Junta does too.
The resistance there is anti-China.
She’s irrelevant now.
I support the anti-China faction fighting against this coup.
She’s a globalist and pal of the Clintons et al.
Sh3e is a corrupt globalist who has sold out her country.
Any hero of leftist democrats is questionable. See Nelson Mandela. Now, An sue see. Whatever her name is.
