Bangladesh: Attacks on Indigenous People Unsettle Chittagong Peace

 

 On 22 September 2012 the Bengali settlers conducted savagery attack upon the Jumma peoples in different localities of Rangamati district town in presence of the security forces. In this attack the wounded from among the Jumma population were more than 100 people including 1 government physician, 14 Union Council Chairmen, 3 college teachers and 9 Bengali settlers and students while the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) Regional Council office and rest house came under attack and many Jumma houses including their commercial establishments were vandalized. After much delay of the beginning of the attack, army, Border Guard of Bangladesh (BGB) and police were deployed in the spots of occurrence. Even after their deployment, the law enforcing authorities miserably failed to undertake proper measures and this resulted in the savagery attacks upon the Jummas dwelling either side of the Rangamati-Chittagong main road at a stretch from 10 am to approximately 3 pm amidst the patrolling of army, BGB and police forces along the main road. The matter did not end up there, even on 23 September 2012 during the hours of Section 144 enforced threat, one innocent Jumma passer-by was attacked in the Rangamati general hospital area in the morning and also the Bengali settlers were made efforts to attack the Jummas living in East Tribal Adam and Rajmoni Para localities in the evening.
