DMP takes foolproof security measures for National Mourning Day
DHAKA, Aug 14, 2018 (BSS) – Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Commissioner
Asaduzzaman Mia today said they have taken coordinated security measures for
smooth and peaceful observation of the National Mourning Day tomorrow.
“We’ve taken coordinated and foolproof security measures for peaceful
observance of the National Mourning Day, marking 43rd martyrdom anniversary
of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman,” he said while
talking about security arrangements in the capital ahead of the National
Mourning Day.
“Security plan has been taken for peaceful observance of each and every
programme marking the National Mourning Day. Particularly, Dhanmondi-32 and
its adjoining areas have been brought under unprecedented security with
setting up two control rooms, archways, and closed circuit cameras (CCTVs) as
the President, the Prime Minister and other VVIPS are expected to pay their
respect on the portrait of Bangabandhu here,” he said.
Dog squads of the Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) and police will sweep
Bangabandhu Memorial Museum and Banani Graveyard to make the security
foolproof, Asaduzzaman informed.
The DMP Commissioner requested city dwellers not to carry trolley bag,
backpack, Tiffin-carrier, flax, knife, explosive substances, gaslight and
firearms during the National Mourning Day.
