Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal on Saturday said the government has taken measures for filing a flawless chargesheet over the murder of Abrar Fahad, a second-year student of Bangladesh University of Engineering Technology (BUET).

The minister said the government led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina successfully brought terrorism and militancy under control, adding, “Now drives are being conducted against corruption and illegal drugs because the government has been moving forward with ‘zero tolerance’ policy against graft and illegal drugs.”
He said, “We are not conducting drives against any sector or area. Drives are being operated based on irregularity and corruption so that corrupt persons and grabbers could not indulge in any irregularity and corruption.”
Kamal said the drive will be continued until elimination of corruption and illegal drugs from the country side by side establishing a beautiful society for the new generation.
“The government is re-arranging RAB, BGB and Police along with the law enforcement agencies as sustainable development needs sustainable security system,” he added.
He said Father of Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s spirit was to establish a non-communal Bangladesh. “But we lost the path after the brutal killing of Bangabandhu.
