Suu Kyi has been held in a specially constructed prison compound in the military-built capital Naypyidaw.
The junta spokesman did not specify where Suu Kyi was currently being held.
In April, the junta said she had been given “necessary care” as temperatures in Naypyidaw reached 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit).
Suu Kyi, who remains hugely popular in Myanmar, has been largely hidden from view since the coup, appearing only in grainy state media photos taken during court proceedings.
Local media reported that during her months-long trial, Suu Kyi had suffered dizzy spells, vomiting and at times had been unable to eat because of a tooth infection.
Her son Kim Aris told AFP on Wednesday that he was “concerned” about his mother’s condition, given her age and ongoing health issues.
The son of Myanmar democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi is "concerned" about her health, he said on Wednesday, as the Nobel laureate turned 79, passing another birthday in military detention. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/06/20/asia-pacific/politics/son-myanmar-suu-kyi-birthday-junta/ #asiapacific #politics #aungsansuukyi #myanmar #southeastasia
