He added that there is also an intelligence watch on the headquarters of the state-run cooperative dairy.

A conflict between the management committee and the MD ensued when he insisted on complying with the law and rules in recruitment, procurement and promotion, said the secretary.
Things aggravated when Munir refused to entertain any undue demand of the management committee and help them gain their personal benefits.
Hasib Khan Tarun could not be reached despite several phone calls. He had earlier said the government would determine whether the management
