Hill Voice, 7 October 2025, Rangamati: It has been alleged that an innocent Jum cultivator named Chandak Chakma (35), s/o Mon Mohon Chakma from South Daripara village of Sajek Union under Baghaichari upazila in Rangamati Hill District, was abducted by armed terrorists of the UPDF.

It has been reported that today (7 October) at around 1 a.m., Chandak Chakma was dragged out of his sleep on the balcony of his house, brutally beaten, and then abducted.

According to local sources, at around 1 a.m. today, a 10–12 member armed group led by local UPDF collector Dolapuno Chakma (party name Shijak) raided the house of Chandak Chakma.

At that time, all the family members were asleep inside the house. Suddenly, the armed UPDF terrorists broke down the door and first pointed their guns at Chandak Chakma’s wife and child, threatening them not to scream or make any noise. Then, Chandak Chakma was dragged out from his sleep and taken to the balcony of the house.

Chandak was then brutally beaten in front of his elderly father, Mon Mohon Chakma. Despite the old man pleading with the UPDF armed terrorists to stop beating his son and to spare him from further harm, they paid no heed to his words. Eventually, they abducted Chandak Chakma and took him away from the scene.

It has been reported that after being held for almost the entire day, the abducted Chandak Chakma was released in the afternoon.
