A newly constructed road in Gundum area was severely affected by the ongoing harsh monsoon showers, which left huge pits on the road.
According to locals, accident happened to the worse road condition, which could be avoidable. Most of the roads in the makeshift camps, especially in the newly settled camps are at worse condition.
Moreover, this ongoing monsoon rain and wind have further worsen the condition of transport for the Rohingya refugees.
This sort of avoidable deaths have increased the risk of travelling for the Rohingya residing there and they fear more deaths are yet to be counted in upcoming days.
