‘Action if people do not get services from police’

Staff Correspondent: Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Commissioner Md Asaduzzaman Mia said police will have to win confidence of the people with good behavior and give the best possible services to them.

The DMP boss made the comment while talking to reporters after inaugurating a control room for monitoring closed circuit camera televisions (CCTVs) at Badda police camp on Tuesday.

Stressing the need for bringing the capital under digital security system to make the city free from crimes in a sustainable way, Asaduzzaman said, “Nowadays, it is very much possible to identify criminals at the quickest possible time by using digital technology. We are preparing database of the city dwellers like the developed countries so that none can evade punishment after committing crimes. Eighty lakh city dwellers have been brought under the database.”

The DMP chief also said, “As much as 100 CC cameras have already been installed at Aftabnagar area which will help us to make the locality crime-free like Gulshan and Banani.”

Seeking assistance from all stakeholders including media, he said, “Collective efforts of the countrymen are necessary to build a developed and prosperous country. It will be impossible for police alone to fight drugs, terrorism, and militancy.”

The DMP commissioner asked his fellow colleagues to win confidence of the people with good behavior and give the best possible services, saying, “In case of any exception, we will take tougher actions.”

He requested the city dwellers to inform the higher authorities if they do not get the desired services and good behavior from the police personnel.
