Anti-coup demonstrators are demanding her release and that of other elected leaders.

Myanmar's detained opposition leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, has been handed a second criminal charge but it's not clear what the new charge relates to. Myanmar's military has repeated its promise to hold fresh elections and relinquish power as protests continue. We speak to someone who has been protesting for the past fifteen days. 

The BBC has obtained secretly recorded footage of Princess Latifa of Dubai who says she is being held in solitary confinement.
