Several officials of the NLD in Rakhine state have gone into hiding after a group of unidentified men wearing police uniforms tried to arrest them at their homes, according to an RFA report.

The officials the group tried to arrest said they suspect that the disguised men were members of the Arakan Army (AA).

Min Aung, a lawmaker from Taungup township’s No. 2 electoral district, said some of the targeted officials are now on the run to avoid apprehension by the men.
