Ousted Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi is expected to hear the verdict in her incitement trial on Tuesday – the first judgement from her many junta court cases that could see her jailed for decades

A Myanmar court is due to deliver the first verdicts against its former leader Aung San Suu Kyi

The leader was overthrown by the military in February, and is on trial for offences that carry a combined maximum jail sentence of more than 100 years.

The overthrown leader is on trial for nearly a dozen offences, including breaking a natural disaster law and violating COVID-19 protocols.

Suu Kyi faces three years in prison if found guilty of incitement against the military, although analysts say it is unlikely she will be taken away to jail on Tuesday.

The United Nations have condemned the indictments and demanded the her release.

A spokesperson for the Junta has previously said the former leader was being granted due process by an independent judiciary.

The court room remains off limits to the media and local reporters.
