Police stake out area where American killed by Andaman tribespeople

Police on the Andaman islands have staked out a remote area where tribespeople were seen burying the body of an American adventurer and Christian missionary after allegedly killing him with arrows.

Indian authorities are trying to recover the remains of 26-year-old John Allen Chau, who was killed by North Sentinel islanders who apparently shot him with arrows and then buried his body on the beach earlier this month.

But police on the islands in the Bay of Bengal said on Saturday that they have to consult with experts to learn "the nuances of the group's conduct and behaviour, particularly in this kind of violent behaviour".
