Suu Kyi visitor ill

An American on trial for secretly entering the house of opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi has been hospitalized after suffering seizures, hospital sources said yesterday. John Yettaw, 53, was admitted to Yangon's main hospital on Monday; his condition was reported to be improved. Yettaw faces up to five years in prison on charges he helped violate the terms of the 64-year-old Nobel Peace laureate's house arrest by swimming uninvited to her lakeside residence and staying two nights.
