The Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) have asked residential hotels in the city to abide by some rules for keeping boarders. DMP Commissioner Md Asaduzzaman Mia said police would take action against hotel authorities if they ignore the instructions. A letter containing the instructions has already been circulated throughout the city, OCs of all police stations under DMP said. The letter, signed by the DMP commissioner, said police were collecting information on tenants living in Dhaka to maintain law and order, and especially to curb militancy. If residential hotels do not take strict security measures, it would be easy for miscreants to rent hotels and carry out their misdeeds, the letter added.
