Police to investigate Khaleda’s link to subversive acts: Hasina

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today said law enforcing agencies would investigate the link of Begum Khaleda Zia with the recent subversive activities and take step whether she would be charged in this connection.
Replying to a question from treasury bench member ABM Tajul Islam during PM’s question answer session in the House, Sheikh Hasina said the country was running smoothly and progressing as well after the January 5, 2014 election.
But, the PM said, Khaleda Zia being anxious with the progress and failed to draw public support to her politics, preferred destroying peace from public life and encouraging bomb attack, killing and other subversive activities which she also followed prior to the January 5, 2014 election.
To coordinate the unruly activities, Sheikh Hasina said, Khaleda Zia is staying in party office instead of her home and innocent people including children, women, public transport drivers are felling prey of their political wrath.The Prime Minister said, “It is quite natural to bring anyone under the law on charge of giving order. The law enforcing agencies will deal with the matter and they will take step about making charge against Khaleda Zia instigating the recent killing, bomb attack and arson,” she said.
Replying to a written question from treasury bench member Mustafizur Rahman Chowdhury, the Prime Minister said her government has given utmost importance to public security and economic development.
The government is making relentlessefforts to curb subversive activities of the BNP-Jamaat cohorts by providing special security to run buses and trucks and rails. Despite, they are carrying out clandestine attacks, she said and urged people to help law enforcing agencies by giving prior information about the
criminals.
Sheikh Hasina said the government has also attached importance to build up a trained police force aimed at establishing rule of law. In view of this, she said, manpower of police is being increased and specialized units are being constituted.
Besides, police forces are being given transports, modern equipment, arms ammunition, she said adding that financial allowance for police force were increased in case of causality or injury on their duty. – BSS
