Rangamati, CHT News<\/strong>
\nThursday, August 28, 2025<\/p>\n

The Bangladesh Army personnel have allegedly shot and detained a man in Rangamati.<\/p>\n

The incident is reported to have occurred at approximately 4 a.m. today, Thursday (August 28, 2025), in the village of Hijeychari, under Kengerachari Union of Bilaichari Upazila in Rangamati district.<\/p>\n

The victim has been identified as Antar Chakma (32), son of Nigira Kumar Chakma.<\/p>\n

It is also alleged that the soldiers physically and sexually harassed his wife.<\/p>\n

The army has claimed that the detained person is a member of the JSS (Santu) group and that they recovered ‘weapons’ and various documents from him. However, the JSS has stated through their media channels that the victim is a fish farmer.<\/p>\n

It is reported that at around 4 a.m. today, a group of army members from the Jibantali army camp raided Antar Chakma’s home. When the soldiers broke down the door and entered the house to search, Antar Chakma reportedly resisted. At one point, the soldiers shot him in his hands and legs. When his wife protested, the soldiers allegedly physically and sexually harassed her. She was then reportedly threatened when she tried to scream.<\/p>\n

Afterward, the army team also went to his father’s house, which is adjacent to his own, and conducted a search. They reportedly beat his younger brothers, Riton Chakma (18) and Ratan Chakma, along with another person.<\/p>\n

The soldiers then took the injured Antar Chakma and first brought him to the Hazachara army camp. He was then reportedly taken to the Gachkatachara army camp for medical treatment before being handed over to the police.<\/p>\n

According to media reports citing army sources, a case is in the process of being filed against him for “obstructing the army’s work and attempting to attack a soldier with a sharp weapon.”<\/p>\n

Earlier, on August 26, during an army operation, there were allegations that 17 villagers were detained and tortured in Jurachari Upazila of Rangamati.<\/p>\n

It is worth noting that the army has been conducting operations in various parts of the Chittagong Hill Tracts recently, and as a result, ordinary people are reportedly being subjected to various forms of oppression and harassment.<\/p>\n
