Law and order better: Sahara
Hours after the killing of a city Awami League leader, the home minister claimed that the country's law and order situation is 'obviously better than before'. Sahara Khatun said this in response to a supplementary question from independent lawmaker Fazlul Azim in parliament on Wednesday. Earlier in the day, miscreants gunned down Shyampur Awami league vice-president Mohammadullah and his driver Harunur Rashid at Kadamtali.

Azim mentioned some recent incidents of mugging, kidnapping, murder and extortion in the city and wanted to know whether any special policing system would be introduced to check the further downslide in the law and order situation. He mainly drew attention to the recent kidnapping of a lawmaker's son. Sahara said, 'Sometimes, some incidents take place. Law enforcers sometimes can rescue [kidnapped people] and sometimes fail. But overall the situation is under control.'
'The situation will get better in the future,' she said referring to several measures taken recently.
