Adviser for Home Affairs Brigadier (retd) AKM Sakhawat Hossain has said that Bangladesh Police cannot be used for political purposes any more. Police will run according to the rules of the Police Commission from now on, he said.
He made the remark on Sunday while visiting injured police personnel undergoing treatment at Central Police Hospital in Dhaka.
“Police can no longer be used for political purposes. Police will operate according to the Police Commission. You give orders to the Police Commission, they (police) will abide by if the orders are good,” he said.
The Home Affairs Adviser also said those who used and exploited the police force must face punishment.
