He said this in response to a question from reporters after visiting Kakrail St. Mary’s Cathedral Church in the capital on Wednesday evening.
“A police investigation officer prepared a final report exonerating former law minister Anisul Haque and former private industry and investment adviser to ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina Salman F. Rahman in two cases of murder in the July-August student uprising.” Such news has been published in a national daily. Responding to questions from reporters, the home adviser said whoever did this will be brought to justice. Although he is on vacation now. However, the holiday will not last long. We will take action against him.
He said, such work will not be tolerated at any time. And there is no rule to submit charge sheet like this. The investigating officer did not follow that rule.
Earlier, a national daily reported that a police investigation officer had prepared a final report acquitting former law minister Anisul Haque and ousted prime minister Sheikh Hasina’s former private industry and investment adviser Salman F. Rahman in two cases of murder in the July-August student uprising. Attempts were also made to exonerate former Director General of National Telecommunication Monitoring Center (NTMC) Major General (retd) Ziaul Ahsan. However, the matter was caught before reaching the court. As a result, the investigation is being conducted again.
According to the report, documents and police sources say that the investigating officer tried to submit the final report to the court by concealing the identity of his DB and posing as a police officer. He did not take the permission of the higher officials as per the rules in this case. After the matter came to light, he went on leave citing illness.
It is known that the police officer is Inspector Md. Ramna of Intelligence Department (DB) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP). Jahangir Arif. He was suspended after the incident.
During the anti-discrimination student movement, Sabuj was beaten and Shah-Jahan was shot dead in Dhaka’s Newmarket area on July 16. A case was registered at the Newmarket police station the day after the incident. Green’s cousin. Ayesha Begum, the mother of Noornabi and Shah-Jahan, became the plaintiff in the case. Anisul and Salman were arrested on August 13 after the fall of the Awami League government in the student uprising on August 5 and these two were arrested in the murder case. Major General Zia, who was released from the army, was arrested on August 16.
