New Delhi — Detained Burmese opposition leader Daw Aung San Suu Kyi met her lawyer Kyi Win again on Thursday and discussed a lawsuit to challenge her illegal detention.

Her lawyer Kyi Win told Mizzima that he met Aung San Suu Kyi for two hours from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday and discussed a petition on her illegal detention that he had prepared on her behalf.

"Her health is fine," Kyi Win said, but added that Aung San Suu Kyi had informed him that her family doctor Tin Myo Win will speak regarding her health.

Kyi Win, however, said the Nobel Peace Laureate did not answer his question regarding rumours that she is on a hunger strike.

Kyi Win earlier told Mizzima that, when he asked the same question during his meeting on September 1, the Burmese democracy icon told him, "I am fine but I am losing a little weight."

On Friday, Aung San Suu Kyi's party – the National League for Democracy – said she had refused to accept her weekly food supplies since mid-August and expressed concern about her health.

The NLD said, while they cannot confirm her staging a hunger strike, they are concerned about her health as she has not received any fresh food supplies for nearly four weeks.

Kyi Win, who in two months met Aung San Suu Kyi four times, said he is working on a petition to be filed to the government on her continued restriction of movement.

"The petition will be submitted to the government cabinet," Kyi Win said.

Aung San Suu Kyi has been under some form of detention for more than 12 of the past 19 years. She was last arrested in May 2003 following a brutal attack by junta-backed mobs on her motorcade in upper Burma's Depayin town.

In May, the junta extended her detention period. But her party members and supporters said the junta violated Burmese law, which does not permit any one to be detained for more than five consecutive years.

But the junta said according its interpretation of the law, it can extend the detention period up to six years.
