Centring the worsening situation over the arrest of former ISKCON leader Chinmoy Krishna Das, Home Affairs Adviser Lt. Gen (retd) Md Jahanagir Alam Chowdhury is sensing both local and international conspiracy against the country.
He disclosed as much while addressing journalists following a discussion with officials from various departments at Sylhet Circuit House on Tuesday evening.
Responding to a question about the arrest of Chinmoy, the adviser said there was a possibility of external influence in the matter.
Addressing the ongoing student movement (in Dhaka), he said discussions are ongoing, and a resolution is expected soon. "We do not wish to adopt a harsh stance towards student movements in any way."
The Home Adviser acknowledged that not all weapons stolen in August have been recovered yet, but operations are continuing to retrieve them.
The law and order situation has remarkably improved since August, and further progress is expected. For this, everyone’s cooperation is essential, he said.
