Facebook posts claiming that the Special Security Force (SSF) Director General (DG) had sheltered crime accused Ali Hussain Shishir in his apartment are fabricated, said a spokesperson on Saturday.
A statement from a spokesperson of SSF said Hossain rented the DG's flat introducing himself as a garment factory owner of Narsingdi. A valid tenancy contract with him was signed on legal stamps, Chief Adviser's press wing quoted him as saying.
"The question of sheltering a crime accused in his home does not arise. When police came to arrest him around 03:45 am on January 18, the DG had asked them to take him away and take necessary action as per laws," said the spokesperson.
The posts are "totally fabricated and twisted. It is a deliberate attempt to tarnish the image of the DG, SSF as well as the Bangladesh Army without any inquiry. This is an irresponsible act," the spokesperson said in the statement.
