His mother fought for Myanmar’s freedom. Now he’s fighting for hers | CNN

Kim Aris, the younger son of imprisoned democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi, says he still doesn’t know where his mother is being held. For nearly six years, the ruling junta did not permit him to speak with her, until October, when they allowed for one 20-minute phone call. He’s received no update on her status since, despite his regular demands to establish a formal line of communication. Aris continues to call for greater international support for his mother’s release and Myanmar’s fight for democracy following the 2021 military coup. CNN’s Heather Law reports.
