A parliamentary panel lambasted police department on Monday and blamed the law enforcement agency for its ‘failure’ to find out missing BNP leader M Ilias Ali.
Ilias, also a former lawmaker, 51, and his driver went missing in the wee hours of April 18 from the city’s Banani.
Highly criticising the home secretary and top police officials, members of the parliamentary standing committee on public assurance said ‘there is no work that police force cannot perform'.
“It’s the failure of police. The government has to face political problems for their failure to this end,” Md Ali Ashraf, chief of the committee, told reporters emerging from a meting at the Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban.
He went on: “We have asked the home secretary to find out Ilias Ali. Things cannot go this way. One has gone missing today, another might go missing tomorrow.”
BNP MP Rasheda Begum Hira, also a member of the parliamentary watchdog panel, raised the issue of Ilias Ali’s missing.
Speaking to reporters, she said, she enquired the home secretary of development in tracing the BNP organising secretary.
“But it seemed to me that he [home secretary] was replying as a government party leader,”
