== Events ==
After the Occupation forces of the [[Pakistan Army]] entered Faridpur on April 21 and carried out the [[Sree Angan massacre]], news of this spread like wildfire all across Faridpur, shocking the Hindus there. Immediately the Hindus left Faridpur town and migrated to [[safe house]]s in the Faridpur district for safety. One amongst them was a Hindu businessman Tonic Sen, who left Faridpur along with his family to a relative's home in Jandi village for shelter. Tonic Sen was a sympathiser of the [[Awami League]] and has helped the [[Muktijoddhas]] through fuel and ammunition during the [[Bangladesh Liberation War]].The Occupation Forces and Razakars, in the search for Awami League sympathisers, was trying to trace Tonic Sen.<ref name=":0" />

On May 2, 1971, Pakistan Occupation Forces along with the razakars reached Jandi village and surrounded the village to prevent anyone from escaping. They then rounded up all the Hindus in the village, and then the men were killed with burst fire from machine guns while the women were raped and killed.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2018-12-31|title=সেই রাজাকার – জনকণ্ঠে প্রকাশিত রিপোর্টের সংকলন (Unicoded)|url=https://songramernotebook.com/archives/8088|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201124050807/https://songramernotebook.com/archives/8088|archive-date=2020-11-24|access-date=2020-11-24|website=সংগ্রামের নোটবুক|language=bn}}</ref>
