[mukto-mona] Sahebabad-Kakiakair Incident follow up

Attention: Moderators   mukto-mona@yahoogroups     Here is the follow up programme of the Kaliakair-Sahebabad incident. Please post it to your MM forum.   Ajoy Roy 14. o8. 09   Sahebabad Incident Follow up   Today (14. 09. 08) an investigating team organized by HRCBM_BD and Sampriti Mancha visited the village Sahebabad, Kaliakair. The teem led by Dr. Rashid e Mahbub, a reputed and Ex-Pro vice Chancellor of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujubur Rahman Medical University consists of persons like:   Dr. D. Dilip Datta, a prominent Christan leader Dr. Saurav Sikder, Associate Professor, DU Mr. Robayet Ferdous, Associate Professor, DU Advocate Sadiya Arefin A Representative of Mahila Parishad A local Protham Alo correspondent   The team left Dhaka early in the morning and arrived the place of event around 11-30. They spend two hours talking to victim family members including those of Paritosh, the central figure of the dispute, local elites and OC of Kaliakuir police station.   The Story   The story as appeared to the team runs as follows. A piece of land once belonging to ancestors of Paritosh was said to be exchanged with an Indian party long before. But the party never occupied the land in question. Ownerless land was in illegal possession of one Hazrat Ali of the locality, known to be a notorious person. Some how Paritosh came to know and make an inquiry to Tahsil office (my guess) from where he came to know that the exchange was illegal and hence the land went back to Paritosh and his other brothers. Being unable to evict Hazrat Ali from the land he sold it (~ 3 acres of worth not less than 60-70 lakhs taka) to one Muslim partner, Rana, another powerful man of the locality, perhaps more powerful than Hazrat Ali in wealth and influence. Mr. Rana in no time took possession of the land evicting Hazrat Ali. This is the root cause of the incident of September 1, 2008.  In an attempt to force Paritosh and his five brother's families to flee from the village he led the attack on September 1 night. The real intention is to forcibly grab the properties of Paritosh and others.      Our team had the feeling that although the five families, victims of September 1, are still in somewhat panic, most of the members including the women have returned. A small police camp has been set up in the village. Hazrat Ali and gong are not been seen in the scene of incident.   Our team talked to the dc Gazipur on their return journey and handed over my letter of memorandum in which I asked the dc to set up a police camp, which he did, and round up the culprits. Many thanks to him that he obliged my request in an attempt to protect the minority families. The team returned to Dhaka at 5 p.m. The team leader briefed me of their experience. He told me that their visit has made an impact on the locality, and the victims felt reassured that they are not alone. Dr. Mahbub further told me that the civil and police administration of the locality has taken the matter seriously.   Let us hope for the best.   Ajoy Roy, Dhaka 14. 09. 08
