        More than 180 disoriented Rohingya Muslims, some of whom needed medical attention, arrived in the early morning in Indonesia’s northernmost province of Aceh, an official said Monday.
        
        "From the information we received, the boat took them and told them that they have arrived at their destination and left them at the beach," said Andy Rahmansyah, East Aceh police chief.
        
        He said the authorities are still collecting more information and giving medical aid to some of the refugees.
        
        Ali Hussein, one of the refugees, said the boat took them from Bangladesh before it fled and left them in the dark after the group disembarked to the beach.
