Why negligence in police patrols and searches?
The country's law and order situation is already precarious, with incidents of theft, robbery, and mugging on the rise. Recently, it has come to light that the police's patrols and searches exist only on paper, with little practical implementation. According to reports published on Sunday (January 26), police presence on the streets of Dhaka during the night seems as rare as the new moon. While search checkpoints and patrol units are listed on paper, they are scarcely visible on the roads. Meanwhile, residents are living in fear of muggings. This news is concerning for the public.
How do notorious criminals roam freely?

Those identified as notorious criminals are not only roaming freely, but they are also getting involved in murders. Despite numerous cases filed against them, the police seem to take no action, and many accused criminals are being released from jails and getting involved in new crimes.
