Not an order to journalists, but a request: Monirul

Police officials paid floral tributes to the sculpture 'Deepta Saptha', built in memory of the policemen killed in the terrorist attack at Holy Artisan Bakery in Gulshan. Later, Police Service Association President Monirul Islam answered the questions of journalists. Today is Monday in Gulshan.

The president of the organization Monirul Islam talked about the statement given by the Police Service Association to be careful in publishing news to the media. He said, "We have not given any order to the journalists, we have requested them. It is up to the journalists to keep the request or not.

The statement was made by the Police Service Association recently after the news about the acquisition of huge wealth by some police officers. Monirul Islam, Additional IGP and Head of Special Branch (SB) of Police, came to pay respects to the memory of those killed in Holi Artisan at Gulshan in the capital on Monday morning.

The journalist's question was - recently the media has published news about the corruption of certain policemen. The Police Service Association has sent a protest against the position that the police force always says it will not take responsibility for the individual. It has been criticized a lot. What is your opinion on this?

In response, SB chief Monirul Islam said, "We have always said that the responsibility of the individual is not that of the organization or the force." This is what we hold. But there is also exaggerated and fragmented information. For example, we were told about an officer, he fled abroad with his family. Actually he didn't run away. For that reason, along with the protest, we have made a request.

The President of the Police Service Association said, "We have not given any instructions in the protest letter. I have not ordered you. Not only the police, I have requested to check thoroughly before doing any news. It can be done professionally by anyone. It is up to you whether or not to keep the request. We only requested.'
