DB police won’t arrest anyone in plain clothes: Home Affairs Adviser

Home Affairs Adviser Lt Gen (retd) Mohammad Jahangir Alam Chowdhury said, “The Detective Branch (DB) of the police will not be able to arrest anyone while in plain clothes. They must wear jacket and have identity card with them.”

He made the remarks while speaking to journalists after inspecting the DB office in Dhaka on Monday (January 6).

“There will be no ‘Aynaghar’ or any ‘Vaat-er hotel’ in the DB,” the home affairs adviser said.

He said, “They will not do anything outside the law. If I order them to do anything outside the law, they should not do it.”

Stating that there was no corruption committed during the appointment of SIs, Jahangir Alam said, “If I have committed any corruption, you should reveal it. I have no objection.”
