Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) detained three members of Myanmar’s armed group Arakan Army while they were attempting to illegally enter Bangladesh through the Naikhongchhari border in Bandarban. The arrest took place on Monday evening in the Amtali border area of Ghumdhum Union’s Ward No. 8. BGB personnel recovered Myanmar currency from the detainees and later handed them over to Naikhongchhari Police Station for legal action.
According to police and local administration sources, the three individuals were intercepted after raising suspicion during their attempted entry. Upon questioning, they identified themselves as members of the Arakan Army. Naikhongchhari Police Station Officer-in-Charge Abdul Baten Mridha confirmed that legal proceedings are underway. Lieutenant Colonel S M Khairul Alam, commanding officer of the 34 BGB Battalion in Cox’s Bazar, said the detainees were transferred to the relevant authorities following standard procedures.
Local administration officials stated that law enforcement agencies are handling the matter in accordance with legal protocols. BGB has intensified patrols and surveillance along the Naikhongchhari border to prevent illegal crossings and drug trafficking.
