Militia troops
were able to recover a BA-63 rifle, the last of three weapons stolen by 5
assailants who attacked the Aungzan police outpost in Aungzu area of Maungdaw
Township on 11 March.
Two BA-94 guns
with their cartridges missing, two of the three arms that were stolen, were
found near the Waylataung creek near the 42 milepost near the border on the
same day of the attack at 5pm. The Aungzan militia was led by a temporary
Aungzu Area Chief and recovered the two guns while pursuing the assailants.
The remaining
BA-64 was discovered with 15 bullets and cartridge intact by two Boristayli
villagers in a bush two miles to the East of their village. Boristayli lies on
the opposite side of the border, Northeast of border outpost No. 42. The two
villagers who discovered the gun were able to report to the border outpost with
border police receiving the arms and ammunitions near the borderline at 9am.
