On 14 September a 50-60 strong contingent of the Pakistan army attacked Madhuram Talukdarpara, and launched a barbarous assault on the men, women, children and the elderly. Eighteen villagers were tied with ropes and then beaten and dragged to the army camp near the Pomra reserved forest. Hundreds of villagers accompanied them to the camp to secure their release from the army officers. The eldest five of the captives were released in half dead condition. The rest were made to dig a grave where they were buried alive.
