SIX mobile
handsets were snatched away by members of the Jargo Party vigilante group as
they raided Harinath Para under Golabari Union in Khagrachari district under
army protection on Saturday night, December 02.
The Jargo
Party terrorists were accompanied by members of the JSS-MN Larma faction, one
of whom has been identified by locals as Milon Tripura from Thana Chandra Para
village.
According to
the victims’ and eyewitnesses’ accounts, the Jargo Party members raided
Harinath Para at 9 p.m. with active support from the army.
One of the
victims told chtnews.com, ‘We were having a discussion at
the local Buddhist temple ground when the Jargo Party men came and then
snatched away our mobile phones.’
The terrorists
also raided Democratic Youth Forum activist Makin Chakma’s home and searched
for him, he said.
While the
Jargo Party miscreants were doing this, a group of army personnel took up
positions at Saat Bheiya Para, a village adjacent to Harinath Para, to provide
protection for them.
Three of the six villagers whose mobile handsets were taken away
have been identified as Sohel Chakma (30) son of Surendra Lal Chakma, Jackson
Chakma (25) son of Nilo Broto Chakma and Shikkey Chakma (25) son of Brio Kishore
Chakma.
