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.
