A Rohingya community leader (Rohingya Majhi) has been stabbed to death at Palongkhali camp in Ukhiya upazila of Cox’s Bazar.

The deceased was identified as Rashid Ahmed, 36, a resident of No-15 Jamtoli camp in Palongkhali.

Two to three unidentified miscreants stabbed Rashid in his second wife’s shed at the camp around 7pm on Saturday and fled the scene, Ukhiya Police Station Officer-in-Charge (OC) Sheikh Mohammad Ali said.

He was rushed to MSF Hospital at the camp where doctors declared him dead.
