Pahari Chhatra Parishad (PCP), student front of Parbattya Chattgram Jana Sanghati Samity (PCJSS), yesterday took out processions in the town protesting alleged attempt to kidnap one of their leaders from the party office by some armed rivals on Wednesday night. Later at a rally on the premises of Rangamati Deputy Commissioners' office, they gave the administration a 48-hour ultimatum to arrest the culprits. The leaders alleged that a group of armed members from Khagrachhari were creating trouble at Rangamati town for the last few days. They blamed a leader of PCJSS for leading the rival faction.
