The Department of Environment (DoE) in Bangladesh has filed a case against 11 named individuals, including Erfanul Haque, joint coordinator of the National Citizen Party (NCP) Chattogram Metropolitan unit, and 300–400 unidentified persons for obstructing an official raid against illegal brick kilns and hill cutting in Lama upazila of Bandarban district. The case was lodged on November 17 by DoE inspector Mohammad Nur Uddin at Lama Police Station. The accused allegedly blocked roads and staged protests when an executive magistrate-led team attempted to dismantle illegal brick kilns on November 16. During the protest, workers lay on the road wrapped in shrouds, claiming their livelihoods depended on the kilns and demanding alternative employment before demolition. DoE officials stated that those obstructing the operation were not local residents but hired workers and associates of illegal kiln operators. Authorities have affirmed that legal action will proceed under environmental protection laws.
