Is police really our friend ?
There are signboards in which it is written 'Police are your friends. Take help from the Police'. But now-a-days many incidents are happening which do not reflect the above saying, not only do police not help; sometimes they try to portray people as criminals. The incident at Aminbazar is a glaring example where police looked on while six students were beaten to death. They rescued the seventh, a student named Al Amin, after he agreed to say whatever the police wanted him to say. From the July 28 issue of the newspapers we learnt that instead of withdrawing two false cases against Abdul Kadar, a master's student of Biochemistry at Dhaka University, police is trying to frame him in a carjacking case. We are baffled, what has happened to the police that they are out to get the innocent people? They should perform their duties sincerely so that people could regain confidence in them.
