(Photo: สวท.สระแก้ว)SA KAEO: Thai border rangers have detained two Cambodian nationals in Aranyaprathet district after discovering images of a ranger checkpoint and natural crossings on their mobile phone, raising concerns over possible espionage. However, authorities grew suspicious, particularly as Mr Sok is from Takeo, a southern Cambodian province bordering Vietnam and distant from Sa Kaeo. A search of their belongings, including mobile phones, led to the discovery of photographs stored on Mr Ang’s device showing a ranger checkpoint and natural border crossings in Aranyaprathet district. The unit was, however, not convinced and handed the pair over to investigators at Khlong Luek police station for questioning.
