Cox’s Bazar SP withdrawn

0

The government on Sunday withdrew Cox’s Bazar Superintendent of Police Selim Mohammad Jahangir and attached him to Police Headquarters, nearly a month after the communal violence at the district’s Ramu upazila.

The Ministry of Home Affairs issued a circular in this regard in the afternoon. The Buddhist community leaders have been voicing their demand to withdraw Jahangir since the attack.

On Sept 29 night, religious zealots, apparently stirred by a Facebook post allegedly denigrating Islam and the Quran, attacked the Buddhist households in Ramu. They attacked, vandalised, looted and torched seven monasteries, 30 houses and shops there.
