Burden from across the border

Khamin takes an in-depth look at the state of Rohingya refugees, whose influx into Bangladesh over the last 30 years, from neighbouring Myanmar, is severely stretching the country’s resources


Mohammad Haseem is a Rohingya, living with his wife and his six-year-old daughter at the Kutupalang refugee camp in Ukhia, Cox’s Bazaar.

On September 2, he arrives at the office of AFM Fazle Rabbi, a designated magistrate who is in charge of the camp, to reissue his ID card.
