Rohingyas in Hyderabad held a protest on Monday, 29 January, following the murder of a Rohingya man allegedly by two persons over a petty issue. One constable suffered a minor injury when stones were thrown during the protest, police said.
The Rohingyas expressed concern over their safety and sought reassurance in view of the murder, they said.
The police, who reached the spot, assured that two persons were arrested in connection with the murder and that police could be reached for help after which the protest came to an end.
The police said that Ibrahim, a Rohingya, was murdered by two persons — Asif and Qayum. The murder occurred as one of the accused took the cell phone of Ibrahim and they killed him after he asked for it, police said.
A case of murder was booked and they were arrested.
