13 February 2017 :

Myanmar's authorities sentenced a Rohingya man to death for leading raids on police border posts that sparked a deadly military crackdown in Rakhine State.
Hundreds from the Muslim minority are thought to have died and tens of thousands have fled to Bangladesh since the army launched "clearance operations" four months ago to find the attackers.
Sittwe police chief Yan Naing Lett said the town’s court, had sentenced the leader of the raid on the Kotankauk border post to death on 10 February.
"He was sentenced to death on 10 February at Sittwe court for intentional murder," Yan Naing Lett told AFP.
"He participated in the attacks and led them, and planned them with others. He is one of 14 attackers who were detained in Sittwe Township," the officer said, naming the man as Mamahdnu Aka Aula.
The other 13 people also appeared in court but have yet to be sentenced, he added.
Than Tun, the leader of an aid organisation operating in northern Rakhine, confirmed the sentence, adding: "He is the first one to face such action since the attack."
Myanmar's government said hundreds of Rohingya militants carried out raids on three posts on the Bangladesh border on October 9, killing nine police in a series of coordinated attacks.
