BSS: Inspector General of Police (IGP) Dr Mohammad Javed Patwari today said a vested quarter is spreading rumours over child lifters as tools to gain interest.

Deputy Inspector Generals (DIGs) of Police M Habibur Rahman and Khandker Muhit Uddin and Superintendent of Police in Gopalganj District Mohammad Saidur Rahman Khan were present.
The IGP said, “We have taken prompt measures over the recent incidents and criminals were arrested within a short time.”
He said recently some innocent people were killed in mob beating at different places as locals suspected them child lifters,” he said, adding “We have successfully tackled it. Police will not tolerate such types of
incidents.”
“People are now understood that those were fully rumours and a vested quarter spread rumours for gaining their ill interest,” Dr Javed mentioned.
