YANGON: Myanmar's ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi will be remanded in detention until Wednesday (Feb 17) for a court hearing and will not appear on Monday as initially expected, her lawyer told journalists in the capital Naypyitaw.

"We came here to submit our power of attorney letter and discussed with the district judge. According to him, the remand is until the 17 and not today," Khin Maung Zaw told reporters, adding that he was still trying to see her in line with the law.
