The Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) has advised residents leaving the capital for Eid not to leave cash, gold jewellery or important documents unattended at home, and instead to keep them with relatives or at a police station if necessary. The DMP has taken “adequate security measures” so city residents can celebrate Eid “safely and without worry”, according to him. Addressing residents, Sarwar said: “Do not leave cash, gold ornaments or important documents in an unprotected condition. Alongside uniformed police, detective police will also be deployed to prevent passenger harassment and overcharging of fares, he said. He added that DMP magistrates, with support from the traffic division, were conducting mobile court drives to prevent unfit vehicles from getting onto the roads.
