Bangladesh army intimidate indigenous people in Subalong

On 28 June 1994, Maj. Mohammad Shams of Bangladesh Army went to Subalong Bazaar from Rangamati. He called a meeting of local indigenous leaders and villagers and told them that they would be severely punished if they donate money to the Hill Student Council.

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 massacres, land grabs, rapes, religious persecutions and ethnic cleansing against indigenous Buddhist, Hindu and Animist people in CHT.

Bangladesh army restricts access to Chittagong Hill Tracts to foreign media and tourists. Behind the iron curtain, according to IWGIA, Bangladesh army and DGFI train and harbour Islamic extremists in CHT to launch terrorist attack against Myanmar and India.
