A member of the Rohingya Solidarity Organisation (RSO) was reportedly killed by men from the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) at a refugee camp in Ukhiya Township, Cox’s Bazar, on Sunday, according to The Daily Star, a Bangladeshi media outlet.

The individual who has passed away is Md Harun, 32, living in Block E-3 at Hakimpara camp. 

Authorities have detained an individual, Badshah Mia, regarding the incident. The person arrested is likewise a resident of that same camp.
