Numerous AA suspects arrested

The security agency known as the Sa Ya Pha has reportedly detained three young militants in Rakhine State.

The three were apparently arrested at their homes in Leikamaw village, Kyaukpyu Township, for possible connection with the Arakan Army (AA).

“They have been detained as they’re suspected of links with the AA. But I’m not sure about that. My brother Maung Aye was taken by force from his home on January 21. There is growing concern about them among their families and other villagers. Such an aggressive act shouldn’t have happened in this democratic era,” said Maung Daung, brother of Maung Aye.

The other two detained were named as Thar Tun Phyu and Zaw Win Maung. (Courtesy of Eleven Media)
