Burma's terrorist Buddhist monk Ashin Wirathu is untouchable inside the country. In 2003, he was sentenced to 25 years in prison but was released in 2010 along with other political prisoners. Most keen observers knew the reason as for why this anti-Muslim zealot was freed by the regime. He was to serve as its pit bull and inciter for committing hate crimes and ethnic cleansing drives against the minority Muslims, esp. the Rohingya people that live in the Arakan (Rakhine) state of Burma (also known as Myanmar), bordering Bangladesh.
