THE Tripura State Rifles (TSR) have arrested 8 members of the Jana
Samhati Samiti (Santu Larma faction) in connection with the kidnapping
of two Jumma villagers from Dhudhukchara, Panchari.
According to sources, the JSS men were arrested on 29 October in three
separate raids from Garitana, Toichakma and Bagheichara in Tripura
state of India.
The arrested JSS members are Bijoy Mohan Chakma aka Indu son of Lal
Mohan Chakma of village Pakujyachari, Khagrachari Sadar Upazila; his
son Bana Bikash Chakma; Thoi Ching Mog son of Mong Hla Mog of village
Shilachari, South Tripura; Udoba Chakma son of Amar Chan Chakma; Dev
Moy Chakma alias Akkar son of Rup Sen Chakma of village Rupsen Para,
Panchari; Sumon Chakma son of Nirupom Chakma of village Uttor
Baghaichari, Marishya; Kussum Chakma son of late Kala Chakma of
village Kalanal, Panchari and Kishore Chakma son of Bidya Charan
Chakma of village Baghaichari, Rangamati.
All of them belong to the armed gangs of the Jana Samhati Samiti
(Santu Larma faction) and were behind the recent kidnapping of Manorom
Chakma and Bhubon Mohan Chakma from Dhudhukchara.
The two villagers were kidnapped on 24 October and were released from
Tripura State of India on 29 October on payment of a Taka 650,000
ransom.
Of the arrested JSS members, Indu is the most notorious. He was a
member of the now-defunct Shanti Bahini guerrilla force and
surrendered to the Bangladesh government along with others in 1998
following the CHT accord.
However, he returned to the jungle again, formed an armed group under
Santu Larma’s instructions and began killing UPDF members and their
supporters.
Indu made Tripura as a base for his actions and began to live in
Toichakma illegally. He is believed to have managed to procure fake
documents to prove his Indian citizenship.
The people of Panchari heaved a sigh of great relief following his
arrest and that of his other gang members.
They demand that the government of India take stern actions against them.
