After touring the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) and Special Branch (SB) Headquarters here, the Home Adviser addressed the reporters.In response to a question, he stated, “We discussed a lot of topics. As you are aware, the anti-discrimination student movement resulted in numerous fatalities and injuries. We talked about recruiting injured people. In this respect, we have submitted a suggestion.
Additionally, he stated that they have submitted a new proposal to assign 1,000 students to assist with traffic control.
When asked how the students will maintain their study and assist traffic control at the same time, he replied, “They will work on the road for three or four hours so that they can continue their studies. For this, they will be given remuneration.”
During the visit at the CID, the Home Adviser asked the force to complete the allegations of money laundering investigations quickly.
“I want a quick report about the people involved in the money laundering,” he said.
Mentioning that money laundering is one of the major problems that occurred during the past government, the Home Adviser asked the CID not to linger investigation into the matter without valid reasons, rather submit a report quickly.
“If you take one and a half year or 2 years or 3 years to complete investigation into the allegations of money laundering, it will no longer be effective,” he said.
The CID’s first assignment will be to report on the money laundering that occurred at Bangladesh Bank.
Among those in attendance during the visits were SB Chief Md Golam Rasul, Additional IGP and Chief of CID Md Motiur Rahman Sheikh, and Inspector General of Police (IGP) Baharul Alam.
