Army officer stabbed to death by robbers in Cox’s Bazar

A lieutenant of the Bangladesh Army was killed during an operation by joint forces in Chakaria upazila of Cox's Bazar early today, police said.

The army officer, Lt Tanjim Sarwar Nirjon, was posted at Ramu Cantonment in Cox's Bazar.

The operation was being conducted against criminals, including those who held illegal arms, reports our Cox's Bazar correspondent.

Cox's Bazar Superintendent of Police (SP) Md Rahmat Ullah confirmed that Lt Tanjim was killed by robbers in Dulahazra union during a joint forces' operation.

In a statement, Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) said a team of the Bangladesh army was responding to intelligence reports of robbery going on in Purba Maizpara village of Dulhazra union.

At around 4:00am, a group of seven or eight robbers, sensing the presence of the army patrol, tried to escape when Lt Tanzim Sarwar Nirjon gave chase after them.

The robbers attacked Lt Tanzim at this time and stabbed him in the neck, severely injuring him and leading to tremendous blood loss, the statement reads.

He was immediately rescued and taken to Malumghat Memorial Hospital, where the doctor on duty declared him dead, according to ISPR.

Hailing from Tangail, Lt Tanzim Sarwar Nirjon was a former student of Pabna Cadet College. He received his commission in the Army Service Corps (ASC) from Bangladesh Military Academy on June 8, 2022, after the completion of the 82nd Long Course.

ISPR also informed that three robbers were arrested from the location, with one locally made firearm, and six rounds of ammunition. Three others were apprehended on suspicion of robbery as well.​

Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus has expressed his profound sorrow at the tragic death of Lieutenant Tanzim Sarwar Nirjon, who was attacked by assailants in Chakaria, Cox's Bazar while performing his duty.

"I pray for the peace of his departed soul and extend my heartfelt condolences to his family. I also wish to convey my sympathies to all my colleagues in the Bangladesh Army," he said in a media release signed by the chief adviser's Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam last night.

Yunus is currently in the USA to attend the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly.

This young and talented officer of the Bangladesh Army, a vigilant guardian of the nation's peace, order, and sovereignty, dedicated his life to protecting the people, Yunus said

His self-sacrifice stands as a testament to the ideal of patriotism, which the nation will forever honour, he said.

Lieutenant Nirjon's death comes at a time when the Bangladesh Army is tirelessly working day and night under the "Aid to Civil Power" initiative to ensure the safety of the public.

His untimely demise is an irreparable loss not only for the army but for the entire country, the Nobel laureate said.

"In the face of our beloved motherland's needs, Lieutenant Tanzim Sarwar Nirjon's great sacrifice will remain a source of inspiration for our commitment to building a happy and prosperous future for Bangladesh," he added.​

In a statement, he said the miscreants attempting to put the interim government in trouble have revealed their true intentions through this incident.

Tarique called for the immediate arrest of the perpetrators and ensure exemplary punishment for them.

"Miscreants have persistently engaged in terrorist activities to destabilise the country. These conspiratorial elements are involved in various nefarious acts to place the interim government in a difficult position," he stated.

The BNP leader noted that the brutal murder of Lieutenant Tanjim Sarwar Nirjan while on duty on Monday night was part of this ongoing plot.

"The miscreants demonstrated their intent by killing a young army officer. If these individuals are not suppressed decisively, the safety of the nation will remain severely threatened," he observed.

Tarique warned that conspirators are lying in wait to exploit the situation and create chaos in the country.

In light of this, he urged people from all walks of life to unite in combating miscreants to ensure peace, stability and security, and establish democracy.

The BNP acting chairman strongly condemned and protested the murder of Tanjim Sarwar.

He also expressed deep sympathy for the family and relatives of the deceased and prayed for the salvation of the slain army officer's departed soul.

Lieutenant Tanjim Sarwar was reportedly attacked while pursuing a gang of robbers during an operation in the Maijpara area. His injuries were critical, and he was declared dead upon arrival at Malumghat Memorial Hospital.​
