Sunday, 13 July 2008
CHITTAGONG, July 12 (UNB): Home Affairs Adviser MA Matin has said the law and order situation is under control even though it has deteriorated a little bit.
"I think that there is no need of conducting special drive ahead of the national election. Regular drives to arrest the listed terrorists would continue as a routine work. No terrorist, no matter who he is, would be spared," he said.
He made the observation while talking to the media after a closed door meeting on law and order situation with high officials of police and district administration here today (Saturday). About the strike by river transport workers, he said the government was trying to solve the problem.
Replying to a question about the release of Khaleda Zia and her two sons, Mr Matin said the government was considering the issue and the Home Ministry had nothing to do with it right now.
