Bangladeshi traders are making a quick buck in the livestock business as the Rohingya are reportedly selling cattle at a very low price. Several thousands of cows, buffaloes, sheep and goats have arrived at Teknaf through the Shah Porir Dwip corridor this month. Locals said that Rohingya men with the help of Bangladeshi traders go back to their villages on small engine-run boats and bring back livestock. “A syndicate has been working to sell livestock from Rohingya villages. They share the profits of the sale equally,” said Mohammad Nur, an auto-driver in Shah Porir Dwip.
