Government spokesperson Zaw Htay confirmed the reports, but did not provide any details, including whether she was there at the time of the attack. The lakeside villa is where Suu Kyi was held under house arrest by the military regime for 15 years until her release in 2010. The CNN report said Zaw Htay posted a description of the firebombing suspect to his official Facebook page, a man aged about 40 years old with black hair. Wednesday marks two years of Suu Kyi’s NLD party in power after winning the 2015 election. The refugees’ tales of murder, loot, rapes and arson at villages in Western Rakhine State have made headlines around the world.
