Those who vandalize vehicles are arrested: Home Minister

Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal on Friday said those who commit wrongdoing and vandalize vehicles are sued and arrested.

He said this in reply to a question from the journalists in a program in Dhaka.

In the program, the reporters questioned him about BNP's allegation that its leaders and activists are being apprehended and cases being filed against them to stop its movement.

He replied, "We are committed to maintaining law and order in any situation. Those who commit wrongdoing and vandalize vehicles, cases are lodged against and they are arrested." 

About Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami's announcement of holding a demonstration procession from the North gate of Baitul Mukarram National Mosque on June 5, he said, "No decision has, so far, been taken about Jamaat's June 5 program."
