Appeals to PM to ensure 'fair probe'
Dhaka, Feb 22 (bdnews24.com) – Indigenous leaders, the international CHT Commission and local rights groups appealed separately Monday for justice and a "fair probe" in the wake of violence in a remote area of Rangamati hill district in which indigenous villages were torched and two people killed.
Bagaichhari upazila nirbahi officer ASM Humayun Kabir was withdrawn from duty, the establishment ministry said in a notice, just three days after the severe clashes over land between the Pahar (hill) people and 'Bengali' settlers.
Parbatya Chattagram Jana Sanghati Samity (PCJSS) submitted a memo to the prime minister and called for a parliamentary probe into the events in Baghaichhari Upazila on Feb19-20. >more> http://www.bdnews24.com/details.php?id=154256&cid=2
