SHANTI
CHAKMA, 42, a UPDF member, was shot dead by armed men loyal to Santu Larma in
Ranjan Moni Para village of Chongrachari area under Merung Union, Dighinala,
Khagrachari district on 5 November.
His father’s name is late Bhrigudhar Chakma. The incident
happened at 6pm while Shanti was
walking back home from a local tea shop.
He died instantly when bullets fired by Santu men, who lay
in wait for him on the roadside, hit him.
The incident comes about two weeks after a similar attack
on 20 October in the same area in which two members of the Jana Samhati Samiti
(M. N. Larma faction) – Jamal Chakma and Medhankor Chakma – were killed.
