Held militants prefer death: IGP

Inspector General of Police (IGP) AKM Shahidul Hoque today alleged that arrested militants prefer death than giving any information.

When a militant is detained he tells police, "Kill me, I will go to heaven," the IGP tells a discussion quoting the militants.

The police chief was talking as a key speaker at a seminar on 'Curbing Militancy and Terrorism: Role of Community Policing and Mass Media' at the Jatiya Press Club in Dhaka.
