An Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) commander was shot dead by miscreants at a Rohingya camp in Ukhiya, Cox’s Bazar.

The deceased was later identified as Md. Zubair, 34, son of Rahmat Ullah of Camp-8 West in Ukhiya. 

Ukhiya 14 Armed Police Battalion (APBn) commander and Additional DIG Mohammad Siraj Amin confirmed the incident. 

According to the official, the incident took place on Wednesday, July 29, late at night. Zubain was an ARSA commander living in block H/29 of Camp-8 West under the Irani Pahar Police Camp.

While he was on his way to the local mosque, a group of terrorists fired around five rounds of bullets at him near Ibrahim’s residence. After firing, the group immediately fled the scene.

Critically injured Zubair was rescued by the locals. He died on the way to MSF Hospital in block H/59 of Camp-8 West. 

APBn officials further said internal feuds and grouping between ARSA and RSO terrorist groups had been ongoing for a long time. 

Drives are underway to identify and arrest those involved in the incident, officials said.
