Bangladesh army tortures an indigenous Chakma Buddhist in NaniacharOn 17 August 1989, Bangladesh army arrested and tortured an indigenous Chakma Buddhist at Naniachar Zone Head Quarter in Naniachar, Rangamati district. Bangladesh army detained and tortured the indigenous Buddhist person on a false allegation of giving shelter to Shanti Bahini. The victim is:
India was partitioned on the basis of religion in 1947. 98.5% of the CHT population was non-Muslim during the partition. The indigenous people of CHT opted to join either India or Burma. But Muslim League conspired with the Boundary Commission and illegally annexed CHT with East Pakistan in violation of the principle of partition. Successive Bangladesh governments have been sponsoring Muslim settlers from plain land to dilute the indigenous people of CHT. Bangladesh army's role in CHT is to protect the Muslim settlers and carry out massacre, extra-judicial killing, torture, detention withou trial, land grab, rape, religious persecution and ethnic cleansing against indigenous Buddhist, Hindu and Animist people in CHT.
