On 22 January 2026, Bangladesh army backed "Rohingya" settlers beat and torture 3 Tanchangya villagers in Ghumdhum Union of Nakhyongchari. One of the victims is a mentally ill youth and the other two are a woman and a man.

A mentally ill youth identified as Chiyanya Tanchangya, son of Kalicharan Tanchangya of Jamirtali village was taken to a "Rohingya" camp and beaten on various pretexts.

Chiyanya Tanchangya has been mentally ill since birth. On January 24, a religious ceremony was held at the Harikhola Buddhist Monastery in Teknaf. He left for the ceremony on foot instead of getting into a car.

As the afternoon turned into evening, some "Rohingya" settlers arrested him as a suspect. Later, they took him to a "Rohingya" camp and beat him.

On the other hand, on January 22, at around 10 am, a woman named Barnamala Tanchangya and a young man named Kalu Tanchangya were arrested and beaten by 3 armed "Rohingya" terrorists (ARSA) while they were cutting brooms in the forest in the Ghumdhum Union.
In the morning, they went to cut brooms in the forest about 3-4 kilometers away from Fatrajhi village. At that time, three armed "Rohingya" terrorists (ARSA) suddenly arrested them and took them to a hilly area. There, both of them were brutally beaten.

Later, the "Rohingya" terrorists told them not to enter the hilly areas again, and after issuing various types of intimidation and death threats, they were released.
