RAJSHAHI, June 30, 2022 (BSS) - Inspector General of Bangladesh Police (IGP)

Dr Benazir Ahmed has categorically said personal liability of any police
personnel can't be pressed on the whole police force.

"Police want headlines of success news instead of bad news. Entire police
force will not bear the liability of any police involved in crimes and
indiscipline. Main motto of the police is to serve people, love people and
stand beside the distressed people," he added.

The IGP came up with the observation while addressing the passing out
ceremony of the 164th Trainee Recruits Constables (TRC) - 2021 at Bangladesh
Police Academy (BPA) at Sardah in Charghat upazila in the district today as
the chief guest.

A total of 453 TRCs took part in the passing out ceremony after successful
completion of their six-month long foundation training course.

IGP Benazir Ahmed asked the attending TRCs to ensure fundamental rights of
the public in general and they must attain trust and confidence in them as
they take shelter in the police when faced with any problem.

Steps were taken to make the Bangladesh police equal to the police of
developed countries through modernization.

"We have introduced cyber centres and DNA Lab to detect criminals and unearth
the actual fact of cases as part of the modernization process," he said,
adding bit policing and community policing are now functioning to reach the
police services to the doorsteps of the people.

Police plays a pioneering role in eradicating militancy, extremism and
terrorism.
