Locals suspect the 23 armed Rohingya men captured and handed to Ukhiya police by the BGB belong to Nabi’s group. Speaking to bdnews24.com Ukhiya Police Station chief Shamim Hossain could not confirm which group the Rohingya militants belong to. They believe more members of Nabi’s group ARA crossed the border than those caught. Rahmater Beel, the village through which the Rohingya men entered Bangladesh, is a kilometre away from Balukhali, which houses a large refugee camp. Danu Mia, a bus supervisor residing in Dakkhinpara, said locals were afraid of fishing in the Naff river because of Nabi’s men.
