Inspector General of Police (IGP) Chowdhury Abdullah Al-Mamun on Tuesday said that stern action would be taken against all forms of extortion during the Eid, reports BSS.
"We will not tolerate any sort of extortion in any sector including the transport sector," he said while presiding over the overall law and order, security and traffic management meeting on the occasion of holy Ramadan and upcoming Eid-ul-Fitr at the police headquarters in the city.
The IGP directed the field level police officers to carry out their duty to control commodity prices with sincerity. He emphasised market monitoring and smooth movement of goods carrying vehicles.
"Everyone should be careful so that none can create any issue during the Ramadan and Eid and deteriorate the law and order. Officials should be vigilant so that no vested quarters can destroy communal harmony or cause any untoward incidents by spreading rumours and misinformation in the cyber world," Mamun said.
