Altogether 50 villages in this tehsil were looted with arson, murder and abduction of women. Ears, noses and breasts of women were cut off, and they were raped in the presence of their husbands, brothers, fathers and sons.

It is estimated that Hindus were wiped out in this district over an area of about 500 square miles. (en) |
