Mayanmar, May 3 (TIWN): The Myanmar Army has shot dead six detainees in a village school in Rakhine state 'for trying to grab soldiers' weapons'.
A spokesman of the Army confirmed the incident, saying those detained were being questioned for links to the rebels of the Arkanan Army, who are ethnic Rakhine Buddhists, the BBC reported on Friday.
More than 30,000 Buddhist civilians have been displaced in the latest fighting between national forces and the rebels, the report said.
