Refugee Agency Other protection gaps exist due to a lack of appropriate responses by UNHCR. In most cases where Rohingya faced threats to their lives, they told Fortify Rights they had been unable even to contact UNHCR protection staff or had not received any protection even when they did manage to reach UNHCR protection staff to report the threats. For example, a Rohingya man told Fortify Rights about how he attempted to report threats against his life by ARSA in 2023 to UNHCR and the Bangladesh authorities. He said: There is a separate office for UNHCR in the CiC [Camp-in-Charge] office. I went to report the case [to UNHCR]. I could not meet UNHCR, and a volunteer met with us and only took our name and some brief details. The second time I tried to report the case, I waited until the afternoon. We could not meet CiC or any UNHCR people.294 ARSA threatened the man for supporting a majhi, who was also a relative, that ARSA had shot and wounded. ARSA members came to his shelter after the man had returned to the camp from bringing the majhi to the hospital. 295 He said: [ARSA] came around 12 midnight. They asked us to open the door. My wife did not open the door. ... They directly told my wife, “We are from al-Yaqin [ARSA].” ... They were wearing pants, black t-shirts, and a black cloth COVID mask. ... They said, “Why did you help [the majhi]? Do you want to lose your life? We could not kill your [relative], but we will cut you down.”296 Initiative for Vulnerable Rohingya Refugees in Bangladesh,” December 13, 2022, https://www.state.gov/resettlementinitiative-for-vulnerable-rohingya-refugees-in-bangladesh/.
