Bangladesh police arrest ‘most wanted’ ARSA member at Rohingya camp
[BenarNews] Bangladesh police said Monday they had arrested an ARSA rebel commander at a Rohingya refugee camp in Cox’s Bazar who was among the most wanted criminals — bringing to three the number of suspects captured in the area this month with Death Eater links.

Until lately Bangladesh government officials and authorities had long denied allegations about the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA)
...a.k.a. Harakah al-Yaqin. The main Rohingya krazed killer group operating in Myanmar's troubled Rakhine state that borders Bangladesh's southeast, and also in the Rohingya refugee camp in Cox’s Bazaar, though Bangladesh adamantly refuses to accept the idea that it’s there. It was ARSA’s attack on several police posts in Rakhine in 2017 that caused the Burmese Myanmar army to crack down, driving three quarters of a million Moslem Rohingya back to Bangladesh, from whence they had illegally migrated a century or two earlier...
rebel group, which is based in the neighboring state of Rakhine in Myanmar, having a presence in this southeastern district. Cox’s Bazar is home to camps and settlements near the Burmese border, where about 1 million Rohingya are sheltering.

Police announced the arrests of ARSA suspects Abu Bakkar, 37, along with Syedul Amin, 26, on Sunday, while Nur Mohammad, 47, was captured on July 7. The court in Cox’s Bazar has ordered all three to be jugged
Please don't kill me!
, according to Sheikh Mohammad Ali, the police chief in the Ukhia sub-district.

Abu Bakkar, who acted as a camp leader for ARSA, has used aliases to avoid arrests in the past, said Md Kamran Hossain, the additional superintendent for Armed Police Battalion 8 (APBN-8).

"He was listed as most wanted on the police list of criminals in Cox’s Bazar," Kamran told BenarNews, adding that Abu Bakkar was allegedly involved in killing six Rohingya in a single incident in October 2021 and allegedly had a role in a more recent killing.

APBN unit 14 commander Naimul Haque said Amin worked as a gun runner while Mohammad was chairman of ARSA’s fatwa committee. He said drone cameras had aided police in catching Abu Bakkar and Amin.

Haque said Amin had trained others to use weapons, including G3 battle rifles.

"Police recovered some photographs of Amin that showed he posed with a G3 rifle," Haque said.

Amin told interrogators that he had undertaken weapons training in a Myanmar forest for six months, Haque said.

"Amin’s family is living here in Cox’s Bazar. He recently came here to meet family and police arrested him," the APBN-14 commander said.

Like Abu Bakkar, Muhammad hid his identity, according to the police official.

"Muhammad used to run his organizational activities at night under the guise of a mawlana [Islamic preacher]. It helped him to operate more easily," Haque said.

MORE THAN 800 ARRESTS
Haque told BenarNews that at least 836 Rohingya with alleged ties to ARSA had been arrested over the last six months, adding that officers confiscated three foreign-made handguns and at least 20 other firearms.

Since the September 2021 killing of internationally known Rohingya activist muppet Muhib Ullah, police arrested nearly 2,000 Rohingya allegedly involved in criminal activities, including drug dealing.

Meanwhile,
...back at the Council of Boskone, Helmuth ordered the entire 614th quadrant searched. The Green Lensman must be found!...
Rohingya and Bangladeshis in Cox’s Bazar have expressed fears about terror activities including killings and kidnappings inside the refugee camps.

Ayasur Rahman, the leader of a local neighborhood watch group made up of Bangladeshi citizens who live in communities that surround the camps, urged government officials to take serious action against ARSA members operating in the camps here.

Elsewhere, a Rohingya leader from the Ukhia-1 camp who requested anonymity over safety concerns said residents were afraid.

"ARSA people are now controlling and leading all illegal and unethical activities, including drug dealing inside camps," the leader told BenarNews.

"Those people who are taking a stand against ARSA have become targets, that’s why no one is making any comment against them publicly," he said.

Imrul Kayes Chowdhury, chairman of the local government at Ukhia, told BenarNews that members of the host community fear the terror activities inside the refugee camps.

"Incidents of killings and other criminal activities have us scared as law enforcement agencies are struggling to prevent crimes committed by Rohingya," he said.

#1 The Rohingya Salvation Army 🙀 is actually the Harkat ul Yaqin, a minor terrorist group that renamed itself this to appear like some righteous resistance against communal cleansing. They arose independent of the primary Rohingya terror group, the Arakan Army, the militant wing of the ULA (united league of Arakan). Forces of Myanmar, Bangladesh, India, plus armed buddist extremists have been absolutely kill kill killing the Arakan Army and have forced them to police their own people under threat of extermination. But a number of ULA people support and protect the Harkat or the ARSE or whatever. Also, some Sörōs sponsored enn gee ohs have been lobbying, whining in the media, buying influence and spreading bribes faster'n a sociology grad spreads the crabs, in the subcontinent to bail out and assist Rohingya in their survival.

I understand the judeochristian 'Gawd is is love' thingy, and also the modern humanist one, but Rohingya are one of those communities that need to be put Outta their misery, trust me. It's one of those things instances in ye oldè testament teach us.

#2 Harkat ul Yaqin is definitely minor. It doesn’t show up either in our archives or in a search of the internet.

#3 Try Harakkah al Yaqin. That'd be the Burmese way of saying it. Harkat or Harakkah would be 'action' or 'movement' while Yaqin means faith. That's the real name of these buggers.

#4 Yeah, they were insignificant. Once again, it's the paki ISI that trained and armed a bunch of dirt daubers with sticks and stones and built up their ranks with fraternal moslemnicious encouragement.

#6 Trying the alternate spelling yields this from Wikipedia:

The Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army, formerly known as Harakah al-Yaqin, is a Rohingya insurgent group active in northern Rakhine State, Myanmar.

#7 I added the result of searching the archives with that spelling to the bottom of the article for future reference. Thank you, Dron!

#8 You're welcome. Fun trivia: this Jununi fellow, the leader of ARSE? Jununi means 'mental' or 'psychotic' in Urdu. Anyway, he's actually just a bastard of a local Paki tougher and a rohingya woman, born in Karachi. His brother's still in a jail in Pakistain. Real name's just Ataullah.
