The Rohingya camps in Teknaf and Ukhiya has almost become hostage to 30 Mafia criminals who are leading at least 12 kinds of crimes there including drug trade, arms smuggling, kidnapping, murder, disappearance, robbery etc.
In 33 camps of Rohingyas staying in Bangladesh, their commands seem to be unavoidable law. Anarchy is reigning supreme in the camps due to their directions of criminal activities. They are the leaders of banned organization Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA), Rohingya Solidarity Organization (RSO), Islami Mahaz, Jamiyatul Mujahidin and AL Yakin. They have been conducting the activities of these organizations after got rusticated from Myanmar.
All of them possess illegal arms, including ultra-modern AK47 rifles. These trained terrorists are also providing training to newer members of the organization in the remote hilly area, where the law-enforcing forces can’t reach this deep part of jungle. At least 50,000 terrorists work under these Mafia leaders, among whom there’re 10,000 armed Rohingyas.
Alarming information like this was known after conducting field investigation in the Rohingya camps of Ukhiya and Teknaf of Cox’s Bazar. According to the relevant sources, murdering, kidnapping, enforced disappearance, plundering etc. are taking place under the direction of these 30 Mafia leaders. However, the matter of deep concern is that even the Myanmar government, which is known as anti-Rohingya, has been providing supports to these secret Rohingya outfits. This information has become a grave concern to the intelligence agencies of the country.
From the field visit, it has been known that an armed Rohingya group named AL Yaqueen, is very much active in the camps. Most of its members belonged to another organization named RSO. Al Yaqueen is known as ARSA to many Rohingyas, which have thousands of Rohingya youth. It’s the synonym of terror to general Rohingyas.
On the other hand, ‘Robber Gang’ is another terror to the Rohingyas, which is also known as ‘Nabi Hossain Force.” Almost every camp is affected by the activities of “Rohingya Robber Nabi Hossains.” The force led by Rohingya Nabi Hossain, Yunus, Maulvi Ayub and several others who returned from Malaysia, have modern weapons. The members of this gang are involved in robbery and murder at night and even during the day. This Nabi Hossain has also become the leader of Al Yaqeen. BGB has announced a reward of Tk 10 lakh to catch him. The 30 mafia leaders including Nabi Hossain used to make tunnel at Zero Point on the Bangladesh-Myanmar border. They are now staying in the Rohingya camps. Information about these 30 mafias was obtained by talking to the relevant sources in an extensive investigation.
