UNB, Chittagong :
Observing that there are many ways to peacefully clear up differences of opinion and misunderstanding in a democratic system, co-chair of International Commission on Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) Affairs Adv Sultana Kamal on Saturday said no one can resist the commission by unleashing attack.
She made the remarks while addressing a press conference at Chittagong Press Club in the evening.
Earlier in the afternoon, a group of Bangalee settlers attacked the vehicle of CHT Commission in the district town of Rangamati, leaving three people injured.
The injured are CHT Commission member Elora Dewan, officer-in-charge of Rangamati Sadar Police Station Moni Imtiaj Sohel and vehicle driver Jewel.
CHT Commission co-chair Adv Sultana Kamal, its coordinator Khan Shams Ahmed and members Barrister Sara Hossain, Dr Iftekaruzzaman and Elora Dewan were inside the microbus at that time.
Sultana Kamal held six organisations of Bangalee settlers who announced to resist their visit responsible for the attack.
She said the CHT Commission went on the three-day visit to the hill region to learn about the latest situation and progress of implementation of the peace accord and obstacles to the implementation.
The CHT Commission co-chair said they invited all the parties to talk but the six organisations did not turn up.
