Police arrested two more people at Ramu upazila in Cox's Bazar in the wee hours of Friday for their alleged involvement in the recent attacks on Buddhist temples and houses.



The arrestees are Monjur Alam, 25, of Ramu and Hafez Ahmed, 35, of Ukhia, reports our correspondent in Chittagong.



They were nabbed on the basis of specific allegations against them, Gazi Md Shakhwat Hossain, acting officer-in-charge of Ramu Police Station, told The Daily Star.



With these two, the number of total arrestees in this connection stands at 102.



During the September 29 attacks, 12 monasteries and about 50 houses were torched or vandalised following the Facebook post of an anti-Islam photograph tagged to a Buddhist youth's account.
