Bengali settlers attempt to grab indigenous land in Dighinala

In complicity with the Bangladesh police, the Muslim settlers occupied the land of Mr. Jugen Chakma (44) of Merung in Dighinala, Khagrachari district.

On 31 December 1984, indigenous leaders Mr. Guna Dhar Chakma, Mr. Hriday Ranjan Chakma, Mr. Surendra Chakma, Mr. Nihar Bindu Chakma and Mr. Bimal Kanti Chakma went to Dighinala Police Station to protest against the illegal occupation of indigenous farmlands by the Muslim settlers.

The Officer—in-Charge of the police station did not take any action against the Muslim settlers. Instead he charged these innocent indigenous Buddhist leaders with arson and sent them to Khagrachari Jail.
