Various platforms including indigenous groups, literary and recitation organisations demanded justice for Lakingme Chakma and said her killers should be brought to book without any delay.
They made the demand during a candle-light vigil commemorating Lakingme Chakma at Cheragi intersectioin of the port city.
Rashed Hasan, joint general secretary of Bangladesh Abittri Somonnoy Parishad questioned why indigenous people have to take to the streets repeatedly even though the constitution has made sure everyone will be treated equally.
Rashed said the abduction and murder of Lakingme added to the collective injustice being rendered to ethnic people.
