The Police Reform Commission (PRC) on Tuesday recommended formation of a permanent investigation commission to deal with the allegations of human rights (HR) violations by the police, as 80 per cent people demands.
"The PRC has suggested forming a permanent investigation commission to this end by delegating the power upon the National Human Rights Commission," according to a survey released on Tuesday.
The survey conducted by PRC on 'What kind of police do we want (kemon police chai)' said that the sensitive human rights violation issue require special attention.
The commission suggested fixing the jurisdiction of the permanent investigation commission and the National Human Rights Commission alongside formation of the probe commission through laws.
The public survey titled 'What kind of police do we want (kemon police chai)' was carried out in the wake of recent criticism in Bangladesh and around the world about the violent role of some police personnel in suppressing the anti-discrimination student movement.
To that end, the interim government formed the 'Police Reform Commission' to reform the police force.
In replying to a question on how the allegations of human rights violation and misusing of power by police should be investigated, 60 percent of 24,442 the people taking part in the survey, recommended of forming a complete investigation commission to pursue the matter.
