Bangladesh army tortures an indigenous Chakma Buddhist in Khagrachari

On 01 Nov. 1989, Bangladesh army of 24 EBR from Betchari Army Camp in Khagrachari led by Major Hassan tortured an indigenous Chakma Buddhist on pretext of having link with the Shanti Bahini. The victim is:

  1. Mr. Egan Chandra Chakma, 60 yrs, son of Mr. Basandar Chakma of Middle Betchari Adam, Kamalchari Mouza, Khagrachari.

India was partitioned on the basis of religion in 1947. 98.5% of the CHT population was non-Muslim during the partition. 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 in CHT is to protect the Muslim settlers and carry out massacre, extra-judicial killing, torture, detention withou trial, land grab, rape, religious persecution and ethnic cleansing against indigenous Buddhist, Hindu and Animist people in CHT.
