Crush the criminals

Md. Shafiuddin Sabuj, Dhaka University
It is unpleasant but worthwhile to note that mugging and murder in different parts of the capital for a couple of months have been on the rise. The reports in the dailies from various sources say that several killing incidents in the hands of the miscreants have occurred in last few months. It also points fingers at the failure of the police forces that are liable for providing people with security. The most heart-rending fact is that a number of law enforcers are known to be involved in favouring the criminals for their personal interest. We hope the law and order maintaining authorities should take the occurrences into their consideration and award the criminals with the utmost punishment in order to hold the wheel of crime.
