<i>Attack on indigenous people </i>
Azizur Rahim Peu / Driknews
I am shocked to learn that some Bengalee settlers reportedly set fire to 77 houses of indigenous people in Rangamati on the night of April 20. They looted all valuables before burning the houses. After burning the houses to ashes, the settlers continued to occupy their lands. But indigenous people have been living in those hilly villages from time immemorial. These are their ancestral lands. The government should arrest those criminals immediately and punish them.
