Dhaka,
June 20(UNB)- Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal on Thursday said that
current discussions about ex-Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Commissioner
Asaduzzaman Mia's graft allegation appeared to be based on speculation.
Speaking to journalists
at the Secretariat, the Home Minister said, "As far as I know, the
discussions are speculative. No formal allegations have been brought against
him yet. Regarding the claims about his illegal properties, he has not been
summoned yet. If he is summoned, we will understand, and surely he will have
some explanations."
Talking about ex-IGP
Benazir Ahmed he said, "The value of land has increased significantly.
Benazir Ahmed was in a mission for a long time. He might have explanations. If
he cannot provide explanations, then questions of corruption will arise,"
he said.
Regarding the ongoing
investigation into the murder of MP Anar, the Home Minister said they are very
close in the investigation.
"Once the
investigation is complete, we will be able to reveal everything. The Detective
Branch (DB) is working correctly and independently," he said.
