Dhaka, Oct 18 The government's committee that investigated the attacks on the Buddhist settlements and monasteries at Cox's Bazaar's Ramu on Thursday submitted their findings to the Ministry of Home Affairs.
The panel chief, Chittagong's Additional Divisional Police Commissioner Nurul Islam handed in the report.
"We got the report the probe committee submitted along with specific recommendations. However, it has not been opened yet. So we cannot give you details on the recommendations," Senior Home Secretary CQK Mustaq Ahmed told bdnews24.com
He added the report will be made public 'in time' after consulting the Home Minister and relevant stakeholders.
Religious zealots, allegedly sparked by a Facebook post 'deriding' the Quran, swooped down on Buddhist settlements in Ramu upazila on Sep 29. In the overnight mayhem, nearly seven Buddhist temples, 30 residences and shops were set ablaze while another hundred such establishments were vandalised and looted.
Home Minister visited the site of the communal violence the next day and ordered investigations by the four-strong committee headed by the senior police official.

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina also visited the affected areas. More than 250 arrests have been made over the incident until now.
