AKM Hafiz Akter, chief of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Detective Branch (DB) while responding to a reporter's query at the media centre in Minto Road of Dhaka city on May 5 said detectives took eight years just to analyse footage and collect evidence of the mayhem Hefazat-e-Islam (HeI) carried in 2013 as it was a big incident, reports The Daily Star. He said, "We did not want any innocent person to face punishment. Therefore, we are investigating the cases after analysing all confessional statements. Our law enforcement's task is to prosecute perpetrators of sabotage and bring them under the law following investigation. Police are now being able to bring into custody those who were found involved in the incident, after analysing video footages. They are also now conducting further investigation." Around 83 cases were filed in 2013, but police have pressed charges only in 18, and gave final reports in two. Investigations of the remaining 62 have been stalled for past eight years. Police Headquarters sources said around 143 cases were filed after the violence on March 26 to March 28. Over 900 people, mostly HeI supporters and 29 top central leaders, were arrested in the old and new cases.
