On 20 February 2008 Chizigala Chakma (25) s/o Guno Mohan Chakma of Kojoichari village under Sajek Union of Baghaichari Upazilla (sub-district), Rangamati was arrested as he was coming out of a voter registration centre at Gangaram.

Sources in Baghaichari said Chizigala Chakma, a member of the United People's Democratic Front, went to Gongaram Hazachara Voter Registration Centre to register himself as a voter. As he was coming out of the Centre after doing what was required to do for the registration, the on-duty army personnel held him back.

The army dressed him in military fatigue and went round the area taking him along with them. Later, they handed him over to the Baghaichari police station after placing a home-made gun in his hands.
