The raid took place around 7:30 pm in the Murapara area of Bharuakhali Union, as reported by Lt Col HM Sajjad Hossain, commander of the RAB-15 Cox’s Bazar Battalion.
Victims and Perpetrators
The deceased farmer was named Mohammad Baitullah, aged 45, from Chowdhurypara in the union. The injured individuals were RAB ASI Mohammad Sarwar, Shafi Ullah (40), and Md Saiman (20), all from Chowdhurypara. The detainee, Farhad, hails from Ghona Para in Bharuakhali.
