Disarmament – 1998

All JSS troops were registered within the deadline, turned in their arms, and received their reintegration payment in 1998.1 Around 1,947 Parbatya Chattagram Jana Samhati Samiti (English: United People’s Party of the Chittagong Hill Tracts), or PCJSS, fighters handed over their arms to representatives of the Government of Bangladesh on four separate occasions.2 Chowdhury also reported that all JSS men surrendered their arms within the deadline, and therefore no legal action was taken against them.3
