Police now better than before: Home Minister Shahara Khatun


BANGLADESH NEWS

Home Minister Shahara Khatun on Wednesday claimed that police are now ‘far better’ than any other time in the past.
Mentioning that there are 141,000 police personnel in the country, she said, "I never say all are well behaved. But the government is working to make it a pro-people force.”
Shahara came up with the comment hours after the High Court ordered six police officials to explain their role in abusing a girl on Tuesday.
She was speaking to reporters at her secretariat office after an inter-ministerial meeting on preventing toll collection in transport sector, reports the daily Prothom Alo.
Defending State Minister for Home Shamsul Haque Tuku’s advice to journalists ‘stay safe distance from police’, Shahara claimed newspapers fabricated the news.
