Citing a news report, the letter said that the Dhaka Metropolitan Police is preparing a detailed record of BNP leaders-activists and associate bodies in every ward of the city.
“It has been learned from reliable sources that the special branch of the police is preparing lists of BNP people at every district-up-district and even at the union council level. The illegal activities of some overzealous cops are tarnishing the image of the entire police force, which is not fair.”
The BNP alleges that from August to November 26, 169 false cases were registered. A total of 6,723 people were named in those cases while 15,000 more unidentified people were also named as accused.
