A JUMMA girl was subjected to a rape attempt in the village of Lemuchari under Mahalchari Upazila in Khagrachari district.
The incident took place on 18 October. According to a belated report, Ms Ila Talukder (21) was taking a break from work at the courtyard of their house about 8pm when Zahidul Islam (24), a Bengali settler from Maddyom Lemuchari village, tried to rape her.
When Ila screamed for help her mother Sadhana came out of the house to save her. But Zahidul, without being intimidated, swooped on her as well.
Then both the mother and the daughter screamed for help, and Sadhana’s husband Bimal Kanti Talukder rushed there and caught Zahidul red handed.
He handed culprit over to the settler leaders, seeking justice from them. But as they failed to take any punitive actions against him, Bimal Kanti filed a criminal case with Mahalchari police station.
To date, even police have failed to take any actions to bring Zahidul to justice.
In another incident, on 15 August, a class ninth girl student of Lemuchari High School, Asha Chakma was subjected to a raped attempt by Md. Harun and Rahimuddin – two settlers from Lemuchari cluster village.
When she resisted the rapists hit and broke one of her teeth. The main culprit of this incident is still at large.
