On May 4, 2009, American John Yettaw (1955 – 2021) trespassed upon the residence of Myanmar political prisoner Aung San Suu Kyi, two weeks before her scheduled release from house arrest on May 27. This illegal visit prompted Suu Kyi's arrest on May 13, 2009. Yettaw himself was arrested by Myanmar authorities on May 6. He was charged on May 14 with illegally entering a restricted zone, illegal swimming, and breaking immigration laws. It is illegal in Myanmar to have a guest stay overnight at one's home without notifying the authorities first. Their trial began on May 18, 2009. On August 11, Yettaw was sentenced on three counts totaling seven years, including four years of hard labor. Suu Kyi was sentenced to eighteen months of house arrest. On August 14, US Senator Jim Webb arrived in Burma and successfully negotiated Yettaw's release and August 16 deportation. Myanmar authorities asserted that Yettaw's visits were instigated by opposition groups as part of efforts to pressure and embarrass the government; however, no evidence of this ever came to light. The Myanmar government disqualified Suu Kyi from participating in the 2010 elections.
