Once the locals informed the camp army that there is a dead body, the army along with some refugees rushed to the scene, and the dead body was found abandoned on the salt field with injuries of torture bleeding yet.
Police is investigating the crime and the real motives behind the murder and report of police investigation is yet to be known.
He is allegedly killed in wrong retaliation of Jubo League leader’s murder last month, who was, according to the local media, a victim of local leadership rivalry but refugees were accused of without being legally proven, according to sources.
However, it is another example of anti-refugee sentiment that is being seen to be increasing day by day and concerned Rohingya right activists and leaders and the refugees themselves as they are in limbo between floating island of Bangladesh and open prison of Myanmar.
Recently in an another similar incident, a minor girl fell to her death after being pushed against a running taxi by one of protesters. Nurul Islam from Block B was also beaten critically.
“We, Rohingya, still believe in and request for Bangladeshi sympathy of the kind they showed us while we were surviving the cleansing operation in 2017 and we also believe they will stand besides us to the last of our problem.” said the man.
