“The IGP complaint cell has been at Police Headquarters for long. But, it has started receiving allegations round the clock through online since Nov 13 in 2017,” Haque, also supervisor of the cell, said. IGP Dr Mohammad Javed Patwary said in several occasions, “Bangladesh Police has been relentlessly rendering services to the people to keep aside their own and family happiness and even risking their lives.” He also said police has a lot of success story till the date since the Liberation War of 1971. The entire police force cannot shoulder responsibility of misdeeds by a very few number of policemen.
