Throat-slit body of Rohingya man recovered in Cox’s Bazar

The throat-slit body of a Rohingya man was recovered from a canal in a Rohingya camp in Ukhia upazila of Cox’s Bazar on Friday night.

The deceased was Sanaullah, 40, son of Mohammad Ali of the bloc-D at camp No-11 in the upazila.

Ameer Jafar, commander of the Armed Battalion Police (APBN)-11, said they recovered the body from the canal around 9pm after being informed by the locals who spotted it floating.

The body was handed over to the Ukhia police station, he said.

Earlier on Friday, five Rohingyas were gunned down in a clash between armed factions Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) and Rohingya Solidarity Organisation (RSO) over establishing dominance in a refugee camp in the Ukhiya.

Security was beefed up in the Rohingya camp area following the fierce clash.
