A joint team of the army and police yesterday detained two more people in Rajasthali upazila of Rangamati over suspected links to the Myanmarese rebel group Arakan Army.

The detainees are Cha Sui Wang Marma, 42, and Mong Cha Woang Marma, 39. They were caretakers of the two-storey Rajasthali house from where Aung Nu Young, a suspected Arakan Army member, was captured on Thursday, said police.

Sub-Inspector Kazi Alauddin of Rajasthali Police Station said the joint forces picked up the two around 4:00pm. Cha Sui was the caretaker of the house and Mong Cha looked after horses there.

Meanwhile, a Rangamati court yesterday sent Aung Nu Young to jail on charges of trespass and terrorist activities.

The court passed the order after police produced the Myanmar national before it in two cases, said OC Wahidullah Sarker of the police station.

Two cases were filed with the police station, accusing house owner Ranaiju Rakhine and arrestee Aung Nu Young of trespass and carrying out terrorist activities, added the OC.

Aung Nu Young, 25, was detained on Thursday at the house Ranaiju near Nayajhiri College in the upazila. The arrest came during the combing operation by the joint forces.

The drive was launched around 10:00pm on Wednesday, hours after the Myanmarese rebel group attacked a BGB camp in Bandarban that left one soldier injured.

The operation was still going on, said BGB sources.
