DHAKA, 30 March, 2021 (TON): Criminal Investigation Department (CID) and the Police Bureau of Investigation (PBI) is set to investigate the incidents of vandalism and arson attacks by the rebel activists and students in Brahmanbaria.
On Monday, DIG Police Md Anwar Hossain affirmed that the two agencies will collect evidence from the scenes.
He visited the sites, including Alauddin Sangitangan music school and Brahmanbaria Press Club in the town.
“Police were not bystanders during the vandalism and arson attacks. We tried our best. We tried to tackle the situation by deploying additional forces from outside.
“We’ve however formed a three-member committee to investigate alleged neglect of duty,” he added.
At least 20 places were damaged in the attacks and the process to file cases over the incident was ongoing, said the DIG.
In the backdrop of Indian PM’s visit on the double celebrations of Bangladesh, the Hifazat and other rebel groups objected to the visit and called for nationwide strikes on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
