Brighten image of police thru works: DMP commissioner

Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Commissioner Sheikh Md. Sazzad Ali has directed all police stations under his jurisdiction to brighten the image of police through works.  

He said this while exchanging views with OCs of 50 DMP police stations at the conference room of DMP headquarters on Thursday (November 28).

“Police stations are hubs of police services. Officers-in-charges (OC’s) of all police stations under the DMP have to work and providing proper services to the people for brightening image of the police force,” he said.

The DMP Commissioner said that the OCs of the police stations must work responsibly so that the service seekers coming to the police stations get the services they expect. 

The police's image has been tarnished due to some ambitious police officials in the past, he said. 

The DMP commissioner said the police have to earn the trust of the people by serving them through good behaviour.

Stressing the importance of increasing the relationship between the police and the people, he said, the more relationship you build with the people, the more information you will get. 

“If you get more information, you can take action for crimes,” 

The DMP Commissioner has given patience hearing to the OCs about the various problems and challenges in conducting police activities and assured them of solving them in phases.
