Burma's military rulers on Wednesday extended the house arrest of the Vice-Chairman of the National League for Democracy, Burma's main opposition party.
Sources close to the Ministry of Home Affairs said junta officials went to the residence of Tin Oo on Wednesday and read out an order extending his house arrest for another year.
Retired Commander-in-Chief General Thura Tin Oo was placed under house arrest after being attacked by a junta-backed mob in Depayin on May 30, 2003, while accompanying party leader Daw Aung San Suu Kyi on a political tour in upper Burma.
