democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi smiles at a question during a press conference after being freed from 19 months under house arrest 06 May 2002, making a triumphant return to her party's headquarters in Yangon where she declared her release was unconditional.

Suu Kyi, who truns 60 on June 19 alone and under house arrest, has spent nearly a decade in detention since taking up her pro-democracy cause in 1988.

More than 300 jubilant National League for Democracy (NLD) members let out a great roar as her car approached the building, and in the crush it took several minutes for her to be able to alight from the vehicle. The charismatic 56-year-old Nobel peace laureate told reporters her release from house arrest was unconditional and that the military junta would allow her to travel wherever she wishes.
