Home Affairs Adviser to Interim Government Lt Gen (retd) Md Jahangir Alam Chowdhury on Tuesday said the discharge of trainee sub-inspectors is not a new precedent and there is no political reason behind the dismissal.
Refraining from giving a detailed explanation, the adviser told the reporters, “There are also precedents of discharging the entire batch on the day before the passing-out ceremony.”
While replying to a question, he said the Bangladesh Police Academy can clarify the issue for taking such a step.
In a stringent measure, 250 cadets SIs have been dismissed from the police academy in Sarda, Rajshahi due to violations of disciplinary codes.
