Violence refers terrorism not democracy: CEC

DHAKA: Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Kazi Rakibuddin Ahmed on Tuesday said anarchists are not protecting democracy rather they are establishing terrorism in the country by creating violence.

He said the victims specially police personnel, presiding officers and other government employees were not members of any political parties.
