Living in the United Kingdom; has had no contact with his mother since the coup

Aung San Suu Kyi is 80 years old and has been in state custody since soldiers pulled her out of bed on February 1, 2021. On April 30, 2026, Myanmar's state broadcaster MRTV announced that the country's new president — the same general who led the coup against her — had commuted the rest of her 18-year sentence to be served at a 'designated residence.' She is no longer in Naypyidaw prison, but the location of the residence has not been disclosed and her son and lawyers have had no contact with her.
