3-tier security taken for Jatiya Eidgah: DMP commissioner

Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Commissioner Asaduzzaman Miah today said unprecedented measures with 3-tier security have been taken in and around the Jatiya Eidgah, reports BSS.

“We have taken unprecedented security measures in and around the Jatiya Eidgah with placing a large number of uniformed and plain-clothed law enforcers, including police and RAB,” he said after overseeing the security measures taken for Jatiya Eidgah here.

Sufficient numbers of CCTV cameras and archways have been installed in and around the Jatiya Eidgah to make the security foolproof while the dog squads and bomb disposal units will sweep the ground prior to the Eid congregation, he said.

“The people will be allowed to enter the congregation ground through 3-tier security search,” he said, adding that none with bags, vanity bags, and explosive substances will be allowed to enter the ground, but in case of raining, they can take umbrella.
