A team of army personnel is currently stationed at the remote Naraychari Government Primary School in Babuchara Union of Dighinala upazila in Khagrachhari, according to reports. Locals fear that the army may carry out operations from there.
Yesterday (August 26), the army allegedly seized engine-powered boats from seven individuals in the Dhanpada area and traveled to Naraichari. The day before (August 25), a group of 80 soldiers from the Dighinala Army Zone and Jarulchari Sub-Zone had taken position in Pakujjyachari of the Dhanpada area.
According to available information, the army is reportedly conducting operations in the Naraichari area to support the JSS (Santu Group). A source indicated that the army might stage a so-called “arms recovery” operation with the special assistance of the Santu Group at any time.
Additionally, the army has been patrolling in several other areas, including Babuchara, Baradam, and Nityagan.
There are also allegations that yesterday, civilians were harassed under the pretext of search and interrogation at army checkpoints in the Babuchara camp and Jarulchari sub-zone. It has also been reported that the army imposed restrictions for three days on the transportation of essential goods to the Dhanpada-Naraichari area.
