Full honours for shot policeman

A SPANISH policeman was buried with full military honours yesterday, a day after he was killed working undercover in France by gunmen from the guerrilla group ETA.

The first ETA murder in almost a year comes three months before a general election in which the government’s handling of the conflict is sure to play a major role.

People applauded when the coffin of 24-year-old Raul Centeno was carried into the parade ground of the Civil Guard headquarters in the Spanish capital.
