Bengali settlers rape and murder an indigenous Buddhist woman in Mahalchari

On 26 March 2014, Muslim settlers gang rape and murder a 28-year old indigenous Butthist woman named Bharati Chakma at Headman Para of Karalyachari under Kyangghta union of Mahalchari in Khagrachari district.

India was partitioned on the basis of religion in 1947. 98.5% of the CHT population was non-Muslim in 1947. 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 is to protect the Muslim settlers and carry out ethnic cleansing against indigenous people in CHT.

Bangladesh army and Muslim settlers use rape as a tool to terrorize the indigenous people of Chittagong Hill Tracts. Bangladesh army is involved in rape, murder, torture and land grabbing in Chittagong Hill Tracts. Bangladesh army is driving out indigenous people from Chittagong Hill Tracts and settling Muslim settlers in their villages. Their aim is to Islamize Chittagong Hill Tracts by rape and terror.
