Resumen

This article exposes the systematic genocide by Bangladesh against indigenous peoples in the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT), particularly the Chakma tribe, through military-backed colonization since the 1960s. Key evidence includes: forced land seizures, ~100,000 tribal deaths, and 85,000 deployed soldiers. Documented atrocities include massacres (e.g., 300 Chakma killed in June 1984), mass rape, village burnings ("scorched earth" operations), and concentration camps ("Joutha Khamar") with torture and starvation. Over 18,000 refugees fled to India. The government denied crimes at the UN (1985), calling reports "foreign interference." The appeal demands international aid suspension to pressure Bangladesh to halt genocide and restore tribal rights.
