Police brutality

Faria Samreen Nizam, Dhaka
It seems of late, that the police officers who are designated to help ensure the safety of our citizens are causing more harm and harassment. Referring to an incident printed on the 22nd of April in the Daily Star, I fail to understand how a man charged for stealing a motor bike (which turned out to be based on false and proof less accusation), can be beaten to death by the police under their custody. That too, the young man was the son of a sub inspector. This is in fact, not just a single incident we are looking at, but one of the countless examples of injustice and inhumane incidents with which many of the Bangladesh police force are synonymous with. I request the Prime Minister to take necessary steps and actions against these types of incidents.
