Myanmar authority finds bullet-riddled body of policeman in Rakhine state

YANGON, Dec 23 (AFP): The bullet-riddled body of a Myanmar policeman was found in northern Rakhine state, government media said on Sunday, as tensions rise in the hotspot where the Rohingya crisis erupted last year.
The western territory is a tinderbox of ethnic and religious divisions and security forces have clashed with both Rohingya insurgents and much better armed Rakhine fighters from the mostly Buddhist Arakan Army.
