Two Rohingya refugees were shot dead by Bangladesh police during a gunfight in a refugee camp on Saturday after they were accused of killing a ruling party official, police said.

Nearly one million Rohingya live in squalid camps in southeast Bangladesh; 740,000 fled a 2017 military offensive against the Muslim minority in Myanmar.

Rights activists who asked not to be named said they believe the two Rohingya men were killed by police in what appeared to be a staged encounter.

It happened two days after a second failed attempt to repatriate the refugees. Not a single Rohingya returned to cross the border to Rakhine state.

“Both men died as they were rushed to a hospital,” a local police inspector, Rasel Ahmad, said.

Ahmad said the two Rohingya were shot and critically injured in Jadimura refugee camp in Cox’s Bazar district during a manhunt after a youth wing official of the ruling Awami League party was killed, allegedly by armed refugees.

Omar Faruk was shot in the head on Thursday at a settlement near the border town of Teknaf, Ahmad said.

His murder had sparked anger among the local population and hundreds of people blocked a key highway leading to the camp for hours, burning tyres and vandalising shops visited by refugees.

Ahmad said the two men killed on Saturday had been identified as key suspects in Faruk’s killing and had been shot while the officers were ambushed by the suspected criminals.

“It was wrong of the refugees to agitate the locals,” said Abdul Matin, a friend of the deceased politician. “We want justice in the quickest possible time.”

Mohammad Saber, a Rohingya refugee who escaped the mob, said locals had beaten refugees.

“They threatened us, saying we should leave or else they’d kill us. Why should we get punished if others did something bad?” he said.

Other refugees said the recent bloodshed has created an atmosphere of fear in the camp, where security has been tightened. The usually busy camp was quiet late Saturday, with roads and shops closed.

Ikbal Hossain, deputy police chief for Cox’s Bazar district, said they would take action against those responsible for the violence.

“We have identified some of them. We will bring them to justice at any cost,” he said.

The killings came as the Rohingya are set to commemorate the second anniversary of their mass influx into Bangladesh from Rakhine after the brutal military campaign.

UN investigators have said the 2017 violence warrants the prosecution of top Myanmar generals for “genocide”.

Bangladesh’s second attempt on Thursday to start repatriating Rohingya to Myanmar faltered after the refugees said they would not return unless their security was ensured and they were granted citizenship in their homeland.
