Survivor recounts Epstein abuse during house arrest at congressional hearing

Roza, recruited from Uzbekistan by Epstein associate Jean-Luc Brunel, testified at a West Palm Beach field hearing hosted by House Democrats that Epstein molested her for three years while he was under house arrest for soliciting a minor, including meetings at his Florida Science Foundation and a role that allowed him to leave custody for part of each day; the hearing, not legally binding, aimed to spotlight how Epstein and accomplices evaded accountability and how the justice system failed victims, referencing the 2008 plea deal and DOJ redaction errors. Another survivor, Maria Farmer, delivered a recorded message urging truth from authorities, underscoring ongoing concerns about investigations into Epstein’s crimes.

Myanmar taps house arrest for Suu Kyi as junta signals limited political concessions

Myanmar’s state media says detained former leader Aung San Suu Kyi will be moved to a designated residence under house arrest after years in detention, with her 33-year sentence reduced and partially commuted amid a wider amnesty. The UN welcomed the commutation, but Suu Kyi’s son questioned whether she is alive and asked for proof of life. The move underscores the junta’s ongoing grip amid a deadly civil war and international pressure for credible political dialogue.

Myanmar's state media says ex-leader Aung San Suu Kyi has been moved to house arrest, with the remaining sentence to be served at a designated residence after more than five years in detention since the 2021 coup; the announcement, shown on state TV, has drawn skepticism from her son and little communication from lawyers and family, and could indicate the junta preparing further changes in her status.

Bolsonaro Granted Health-Based Home Confinement for Coup Sentence

Brazil's former president Jair Bolsonaro was ordered to serve his 27-year coup-related sentence at home under humanitarian house arrest for an initial 90 days due to health problems (pneumonia and kidney issues), with reassessment and possible medical checks later; the decision came from Supreme Court justice Alexandre de Moraes after prosecutors paved the way, and follows prior refusals and ongoing health concerns.
