The murder of a top Rohingya leader in his office has international leaders calling for an investigation and has stoked anger within Bangladesh's Rohingya refugee communities.

Mohibullah, a high-profile figurehead for the Rohingya who have fled Myanmar, was killed by unidentified gunmen last week in an event that has left investigators looking for a culprit.

Mohibullah was shot last Wednesday, September 29, in one of the sprawling camps in the coastal Bangladeshi city of Cox's Bazar. The leader left for Bangladesh when over 730,000 Rohingya Muslims fled Myanmar after a military crackdown in August 2017, in the largest Rohingya exodus to date.

As tensions grew in Myanmar after the country’s military staged a coup d’etat in the early hours of Monday, Rohingyas living in the refugee camps of Cox's Bazar in Bangladesh feared they might not be repatriated to their country.

Though the situation along the Bangladesh-Myanmar border has been normal despite the military takeover in the neighbouring country, Rohingya leaders in the refugee camps said the military takeover would badly affect the repatriation process.
