A Fake Encounter in Barak Valley of Assam It was reported in the news papers on
23 October, 2007 that on 22 October at about 10am five Central Reserve Police
Force personnel belonging to Gharmura Camp of E-147 Company shot dead one Jamir
Uddin Laskar of about 35 years of village Boinchera (also known as Bhaichera)
under the Katlichera Police Station in the district of Hailakandi in Barak
Valley of Assam. Members of the Barak Human Rights Protection Committee talked
with family members, relatives and nieghbours of the deceased, local
journalists, CRPF personnel of the said camp and police personnel of Katlichera
Police Station. According to the sources, other than the two mentioned last,
the victim Jamir Uddin Laskar was a poor daily wage labourer. He is an innocent
peace loving and law abiding citizen. There were no complaints whatsoever
against him in police records. His nieghbour Moijun Nesa states that in the
morning of the day of incident the victim was collecting grass to graze his
cattle from a paddy field adjacent to her house. At about 10am she saw five
CRPF men accompanied by one Rezwan Uddin, who is known to be a CRPF informer,
going towards the paddy field where the deceased was working. She smelt
something wrong and informed Sajna Begum and Anwara Begum, sister and wife of
the victim respectively. When three of them went to the place of occurrence
they saw Rezwan Uddin identifying the victim was asking the men in uniform to
shot by pointing his fingers towards Jamir Uddin who was dumbfounded at the
sight. At that moment Sajna and Anwara started to cry and beseech the men with
arms to spare the life of Jamir Uddin at which they were beaten, kicked, abused
and humiliated. As per the accounts of the eye-witnesses named above, at the
instance of Rezwan Uddin a bullet was shot targeting Jamir Uddin which was
missed, the second shot also missed but the third bullet hit on the back of the
target, who had already started to run away, and piercing his chest exited. The
critically injured victim was sent to the Silchar Medical College Hospital,
Silchar where he was declared dead at 6.30pm that day.The relatives of the
victims believe that the CRPF men was induced and bribed by Rezwan Uddin who
wanted to teach Jamir Uddin a lesson for his denial of marrying his brother
Jakir Uddin Laskar with the daughter of Sams Uddin who is a relative of Rezwan
Uddin. But some villagers believe that there is something deeper. Requesting
anonymity they claim that many CRPF personnel of the Gharmura camp extorting
people in collusion with an extremist outfit dominated by Riyang (a tribal
community) named United Liberation Front of Barak Valley. They cited the act of
fixing sign boards containing the words "Beware, you are under the watch of
CRPF" in electric posts and other conspicuous public places in the entire
Gharmura area as an example of tactics adopted by the force to create panic in
the minds of the people. However, the sign boards were withdrawn at the
intervention of the Deputy Commissioner. The villagers of Boinchera are
convinced that Jamir Uddin might have come to know of some concrete evidence of
such extortionist and terrorist activities of CRPF there, for which it was
necessary for the force to shut his mouth for ever. On the other hand, CRPF and
police claim that Jamir Uddin was a terrorist and died in an encounter but they
are unable to say to which outfit he belonged. When B Rajput, the commandant of
the camp was contacted he asked us to contact Rabindra Sinha, in-charge of
Katlichera Police Station for more information who just told us that an FIR
against the deceased was registered lodged by CRPF commandant. The people of
the valley demand unanimously and unequivocally an impartial investigation of
the incident__._,_.___
