Barisal Correspondent :
Inspector General of Police (IGP) A K M Shahidul Hoque on Sunday claimed that law and order situation better in the country than previous time.
The IGP during a sudden inspection at Barisal Kotwali police station on a break journey from Bhola to Dhaka, told the journalists that traditional crimes like theft, robbery etc. could never be annihilated totally, but when it would be increased , then may be brought under control by different activities of the law enforcers.
IGP attending a programme of community policing while returning Dhaka inspecting Barisal Kotwali police station expressed his satisfaction about its service.
He said number of severe crime not increased except allegations about torture against women, many of which may be false and alleged to use the act for harassing others. Law enforcers should alert about that and could try to solve the minor disputes with help of local people. However the case of serious crime would never be spared and should be brought under law.
IGP also stressed on extending power and ability of river-police as a new unit of law enforcing agency.
Many projects are taken for that and some of those already implemented. River-police would be modernised with speedy boats and other equipments, he added.
About the story of militant leader Tamim Chowdhury as published in media, said we could not assure that Tamim Chowdhury operated his activities in Bangladesh after taking approval from IS, because we have no contact with IS and Tamim also dead. However if we could find any new clue or information, then it would be revealed.
The suicidal squads of militants are curbed and their strength for standing up again has been broken. With cooperation from mass people and following ‘zero tolerance’ policy we operated the anti-militancy drives and still continued to uproot militancy, the IGP added.
