      Myanmar’s Suu Kyi sentenced to 3 years for voting fraud

      Myanmar’s deposed former leader Aung San Suu Kyi was found guilty of electoral fraud on Friday and sentenced by a judge to three years in jail with hard labour, according to a source familiar with the proceedings. The Nobel laureate and figurehead of Myanmar’s opposition to decades of military rule has been detained since a coup early last year and has already been sentenced to more than 17 years in prison. She denies all the allegations against her. On Friday, she was judged to have committed fraud in a November 2020 general election that her National League for Democracy (NLD) won with an overwhelming legislative majority, trouncing a party created by the powerful military. The source, who declined to be…

      UK stunt driver creates world record for tightest parallel EV car park – Watch video

      Parking in a tight spot is a task that requires precision and good control over your vehicle. The difficulty of the task increases multiple folds when a tight spot is combined with the situation of parallel parking. Most people might find the task nerve-wracking and probably might not be good at it. But things are different for a stunt driver named Paul Swift, who recently got his name on the Guinness Book of World Records after parking his Mini Cooper into a very tight parking spot between two cars. To get the record, the Mini Cooper was parked in a spot between two cars only 30 cm or 11.8 inches longer than the car. How did he do it, you ask?…

      UN rights report accuses China of ‘crimes against humanity’ against Uyghurs

      United Nations: Just hours before her four-year term ended, UN Human Rights High Commissioner Michelle Bachelet released a controversial long-delayed report that asserted that China may be guilty of “crimes against humanity” in its treatment of the Uyghur Muslim minority in the Xinjiang. The “restrictions and deprivation more generally of fundamental rights enjoyed individually and collectively” by the Uyghur and other Muslims “may constitute international crimes, in particular, crimes against humanity”, the report released in Geneva just before midnight Wednesday said. It blamed the Chinese government’s campaign against terrorism for what it said was the “arbitrary and discriminatory detention of members of Uyghur and other predominantly Muslim groups” and the restrictions on religion.

      Snap CEO Evan Spiegel fires 20 per cent of employees

      New Delhi: Snap CEO Evan Spiegel on Tuesday confirmed that the company is laying off 20 per cent of its workforce, roughly 1,280 employees from 6,400-strong headcount, as the company “must face the consequences of lower revenue growth and adapt to the market environment”.

      European Union to tighten travel rules for Russians, but no visa ban

      Prague:European Union countries agreed on Wednesday to make it harder for Russian citizens to enter the 27-nation bloc, but they failed to find a consensus on imposing an outright tourist ban in response to Russia’s war on Ukraine. At talks in the Czech Republic, EU foreign ministers were desperate to put on a show of unity and punish President Vladimir Putin for launching the war over six months ago. Still, they couldn’t bridge differences over whether Russian citizens, some of them possibly opposed to the invasion, should also pay a price. The plan now is to make it more time-consuming and costly for Russian citizens to obtain short-term visas to enter Europe’s passport-free travel zone — a 26-country area made up of most of…
