Army searches houses in Bizitola

On the night of 28 November 2007, a group of army personnel from Bizitola camp in Khagrachari district conducted raid on the village of Gurgujjyachari and searched the houses of Nani Gopal Chakma (50), a teacher of Gurgujjyachari Government Primary School, Smriti Bikash Chakma (53), a shopkeeper, and Kiron Kanti Chakma (50), a health worker.

They were in deep sleep when the soldiers awoke them shortly before midnight. No reason was cited for the search.

After the search, the soldiers left behind something like a mobile phone in the house of Nani Gopal Chakma either on purpose or by mistake. However, Mr. Chakma found it immediately after the army men left his house and ran to them to hand it over.
