Babar asks Rab to be sure of criminals' identity

UNB, Narayanganj
State Minister for Home Affairs Lutfozzaman Babar yesterday asked the Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) to nab criminals being sure about their real identity and deal with them with an iron hand for the sake of public security.
"If you are sure about criminals, arrest them and ensure toughest punishment; you don't need to know their political identity," he said at a meeting held at Narayanganj District Council office ground to take feedback from the public on the anticrime drives.
Referring to government's good intention to curb crimes, the minister said the elite force gained public confidence and was working without interference or influence.
Arming the Rab personnel with tough orders, he said with a view to ensuring a secure and safe society, the government had previously launched 'Operation Clean Heart' across the country.
A total of 42 people had died during the drive, and most of them were linked with the ruling party. But "our government treats tenor-ists as terrorists", nothing else like previous Awami League government that had resorted to creating a "reign of terror across the country through patronising the tenors".
As the local leaders and BNP lawmakers said that Narayanganj got a stigma as a terror-infested area during the previous Awami League rule, the minister said, "We want to make the industrial town into a model city."
"So work in line with this direction and I want to get the improvement report after a month," he ordered the law enforcers, taking a tough stance.
Ilie minister, who also inspected ’ a phensidyl-demolition programme, also asked the law enforcers to declare 'war on drugs’ in Narayanganj.
More than 38 thousand bottles of drugs were demolished near the venue.
Among others, State Minister for Liberation War Affairs Rezaul Karim. Giasuddin Alimed MP and advocate Abul Kalam Azad MP spoke on the occasion.
Later, Babar visited some shopping malls and talked to shopkeepers and buyers about extortion. They informed the minister that due to Rab operation, the situation is gradually Improving.
Babar also said the government is ready to take silent action against "silent extortion", a complaint received from many places.
"Inform us about silent extortion wherever it happens we will take action against 'silent extortion' without disclosing the names of the concerned," he said.
