He said a gunfight ensued when a team of APBn went to the Rohingya camp no. 7 in Balukhali on information that 10 to 15 ARSA members including its top leader Samih Uddin were staying there.

Sensing the presence of the law enforcers, the criminals opened fire at the APBn members who fired back for self-defence, he said.
