Death threat: Suu Kyi gets extra security

Myanmar's Aung San Suu Kyi has been given extra security following a death threat on Facebook alluding to her presidential ambitions, officials said yesterday. In a post last week, a man called Ye Lwin Myint threatened to shoot anyone who tries to change a controversial clause in the constitution which bars Suu Kyi from the top office. He did not specifically name the Nobel laureate.
