Mr. Chakma died on the spot. Next day on 4 August, around 11 a.m. Ms. Subarna Chakma and her son were brought to Rangamati about 50 miles away from the victims’ village and admitted to the Rangamati sadar hospital with serious injuries. After 4 hours of their admission to the hospital, Ms. Subarna died, and Kampan Chakma was sent to the Chittagong Medical College hospital.Ms. Subarna Chakma was slain on her head, throat, back, legs and hands, while her son was chopped of at his right leg.
Soon after the incident, some indigenous villagers informed the authorities of the nearest Bumpy Land BDR camp of the tragedy. But the authorities remained silent! It is worth mentioning that Dina Mohan Chakma, father of the slain Barun Kumar Chakma was also killed by the Muslim settlers at Bhushanchara in 1984. The perpetrators were never brought to justice.
