On 19 August 2022 at around 8 am a group of 200 goons led by land grabbers Rashedul Islam and Ebadul Sardar carried out a heinous attack on the indigenous Munda people of Dhumghat Antikhali village under Shyamnagar Upazilla of Sathkhira District. The land grabbers intentionally perpetrated the attack in order to grab the land of the Munda people of Dhumghat Antikhali village.
It is reported that, the 32 indigenous Munda families have been living in the Dhumghat Antikhali village for many years. Recently, Rashedul Islam and Ebadul Sardar have been claiming the lands of 8 Munda families where Rakhal Munda, Abinash Munda, Nirapod Munda and Odhir Munda families have been living and cultivating. Not only that but also the land grabbers have been threatening the indigenous Munda families from many days in order to evict them from their lands.
Incident Day:
On the incident day, Rashedul Islam and Ebadul Sardar hired nearly 200 goons from different Unions and Upazilas of the District. The perpetrators surrounded the Munda village and locked the indigenous Munda people inside their houses forcefully. Meanwhile, when Bilasi Rani Munda, Rina Munda, Sulta Munda and Narendra Munda were working in the field Rashedul Islam ordered them to leave the field immediately. However, when Bilasi Rani Munda and Fanindra Munda protested Rashedul Islam, the perpetrators started attacking the victims with sharp weapons with the intention to kill them. At this stage, the victims injured severely. Nevertheless, the perpetrators also sexually assaulted by tearing apart their cloths and snatched away the gold chain and ear rings of Sulta Munda, Bilasi Rani Munda worth of 144,000 Taka. By seeing this, Narendra Nath Munda came forward to rescue the victims, but the perpetrators hit him with bamboo stick and tried to kill him. A total of 100kg rice seedbed worth of 100,000 Taka were also destroyed by the miscreants. Nobody came to help the victims after seeing the goons. The culprits left the place only when the police arrived after calling at 999….
