Bangladesh army torture 3 indigenous Chakma Buddhists in Lakshmichari

On 29 August 1995, Bangladesh army of Lakshmichari Military Zone launched a campaign against the Shanti Bahini in the nearby forest of Juro Mani Karbari Para. Bangladesh army captured 3 indigenous wood cutters, interrogated and tortured them when they failed to give any information about the Shanti Bahini. The victims were:

  1. Mr. Kalasya Chakma (22), the son of Mr. Bharatya Chakma,
  2. Mr. Nirod Kumar Chakma (19), the son of Mr. Juro Mani Chakma
  3. Mr. Bangalya Chakma (65), the son of late Lal Shing Chakma of the said village of Lakshmichari within Khagrachari

Bangladesh army can arbitrarily detain, interrogate and torture any indigenous person in the Chittagong Hill Tracts. Bangladesh army requires no warrant, suspicion is enough to harass the indigenous people. Bangladesh army is driving out indigenous Buddhist, Hindu and Christian tribes from Chittagong Hill Tracts and settling Muslim settlers in their villages. Their aim is to Islamize Chittagong Hill Tracts by terror.
