DHAKA, Jan 18, 2025 (BSS) - Facebook posts claiming that DG of SSF had sheltered crime accused Ali Hussain Shishir in his apartment are fabricated, the chief adviser's press wing said today.

It mentioned that 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, he said.

“The question of sheltering a crime accused in his home does not arise. When police came to arrest him at around 03:45 am on January 18, the DG had asked them to take him away and take necessary action as per laws," the spokesperson said.

 "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.
