Bangladesh army harass indigenous Buddhist people in Guimara

On 27 October 1995, Bangladesh army personnel of the 2 East Bengal Regiment (EBR) of Guimara Military Zone raided Tabla Para and the adjacent areas to capture Shanti Bahini. But they found no sign of the Shanti Bahini. Then, Bangladesh army terrorists harassed the local indigenous people and arrested some of them without any reasons. The victims were

  1. Mr. Duranta Lal Chakma
  2. Mr. Shashi Karbari
  3. Mr. Shibu Pal.

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. Bangladesh government and army's aim is to Islamize Chittagong Hill Tracts by terror.
