on minorities, A special report from Dimla
Nilfamari: The families of Profulla and Haripada who are the victims of Islamic fundamentalism. The picture shows houses of the victims which are about to be grabbed by the Islamic Fundamentalists- Courtsey The Daily Sangbad. Nilfamari, Dec. 1o:– A hushed torture is prevailing on the minorities of Dimla subdistrict of Nilfamari District. Looting and ransom have become common atrocity against the minority in this area. As a result, a number of minority families are preparing to leave the country. BNP cadres in this area has become daring and continuing their rain of terror. Fearing further atrocities minority families have quietly sent out their young daughters to safe place. Another report stated that Islamic fundamentalist groups are grabbing the land of helpless minorities using false “land owner” papers and often by force to evict out minority from Bangladesh. One after another appeal to the court is running them tired while Islamic Fundamentalists are harassing minority women. Three sons of late Saradha Mohan of Dimla “Mouaza” of Dimla Subdistricts are Prafulla Kumar Singha Roy, Haripada Kumar Singha Roy and Upendra Nath Roy. Late Upendra’s two married sons Binode and Shanathan used to live in their forefather’s domicile until the election but now it has become difficult for them to live there due to false cases against them and threat from the hoodlums. While their father was alive Mr. Upendra sold one “Bigha” land to one Sabder Ali’s son Jalal Uddin. Now that Jalal along with the help of Rustam Ali of Land office prepared false paperworks to evict Bindoe and Shantahan from their forefather’s land which is 2 acres. The clever Jalal did not disclose this to late Upendra’s families instead he signed on the false paperwork and hence donating the land to local Baburhat Mosque while the whole thing is completely false and well planned. Now based on this false paperwork Islamic fundamentalist has unleashed their rain of terror on late Upendra’s family. They have also tried to kidnap and rape Haripada’s wife. Once compelled, Haripada filed a case against the miscreants and now the miscreants with the help of the local administration has filed a false case against the said families. If Prafulla Roy loses this land, they will have nothing to live on and hence the family will be forced to leave Bangladesh without a penny. So far they are only staying receiving the assurance of
protection from former minister Mr. Shafiqul Gani. The family is afraid for
false cases against them, due to this Mr. Haripada has lost monthly payment
from his job of worker at local government school. At last the whole family
decided to give the most of the land to Mosque keeping only the huts for them
to live but Islamic fundamentalists are not happy with this. They want the
family to be evicted out. |
