Dwelling Houses of Ms.Minu Rani Poddar – Hindu minority family forcefully occupied on 2nd Feb, 07 by perpetrators despite court’s injunction order at Mukul Cenema Road-Patuakhali District. Temple desecrated. Minority victims remained jail custody most illegally fabricating false cases against them on 11th Feb, 07.
HRCBM-Dhaka took against prompt action this of type hooliganisms and restored this destitute family at their dwelling house on 24nd of Feb 07. Local Deputy Commissioner and Superintendent of Police, Patuakhali arranged restoration of this Hindu family on request – but they could not recover the looted belongings including golden flute of “Krishna” amounting to Bangladesh currency Taka 42,55,500/00 from the extortionists till writing of this report.
Ms. Minu Rani went to lodge F.I.R. at Patuakhali Sadar Police station after getting bail from the court on 22.02.07. O.C. Patuakhali P.S. refused to entertain case from the victim; but alternatively she prayed for direction from the Court of Magistrate –Patuakhali and the Magistrate directed the O.C. Patuakhali to take cognizance of the case on 26.02.07 vide their Case Number –193 of 2007.
It is surprising that no news published neither in the local newspapers nor in the national dailies. Although everybody at Patuakhali district administration knows this forceful displacement.
HRCBM-Dhaka got telephonic message from the victims at Patuakhali (Telephone Cell No.01714250089 and they requested us to help restoring their possession at their dwelling house. Accordingly we contacted with the D.C. Mr. A.Mashiur Alam ( Tel : 01715168296) and S.P. Mr. A.Kalam Siddique ( Tel: 01713374311) of Patuakhali district. The local administration although most reluctantly restored the possession of the victim, but they refrained from recover the looted materials from the perpetrators due to some obvious reasons.
Ms. Minu Rani Paddar submitted an appeal to HRCBM-Dhaka to investigate the matter locally for their safety and security. They also still apprehend danger from the influential perpetrators at any stage, as the local administration could not recover the looted belongings of the victims.
We need to investigate the matter immediately because as per version of the victim the local administration suppressing the material facts.
I am sending herewith the appeal, case history and other related documents for your kind perusal and necessary action.
Thanks,
Rabindra Ghosh
President-HRCBM-Dhaka.
