Police rescued 13 Rohingya people, who entered Bangladesh fleeing persecution in Rakhine State of Myanmar, from the bus stand area of Kalaroa upazila headquarters on Friday afternoon.
Following information, a police team went to the spot around 1pm and found the Myanmar citizens, including eight women and children, roaming purposelessly, said Biplab Kumar Nath, officer-in-charge of Kalaroa Police Station, reports UNB.
The rescued Rohingyas informed police that they fled Myanmar in their bid to go to Ukhia refugee camp in Cox’s Bazar, the OC added.
