SM Humayun Kabir, Cox’s Bazar

One Ali Ahmad has been living with his wife, children and grandchildren. Aged Muhammad Ali’s nest of peace was broken in a blink of an eye by the neighbor Abdul Quader. This incident happened in Ward No. 1 Kachhpia village of Ramu Upazila of Cox’s Bazar district. In the early morning of last May 21, Abdul Quader, with a fleet of about 50/60 men and women, suddenly attacked Ali Ahmad Bastbhita. Abdul Quader and his Lathial army hastily built a small house there after breaking down the house. Ali Ahmad said that Abdul Quader’s wife, son, daughter-in-law and some daughters, along with the mercenary women, occupied the residence of Muhammad Ali with local weapons. On the condition of anonymity, some teachers of the area said that Ali Ahmed’s residence was occupied by force. It is very sad. A frightening situation prevails in the area. It is also known that all the goods and loot of Ali Ahmed’s house have been looted. Officer-in-Charge (IC) of Gorznia Police Outpost Masud Rana tried to contact him on the phone but could not get a statement. Anwarul Hossain, Officer-in-Charge of Ramu Police Station, was contacted over the phone and he said that the matter of land seizure is beyond the jurisdiction of the police. However, after knowing the details of the matter, will take legal action.
