Home Affairs Adviser Lt. Gen. (Retd.) Md. Jahangir Alam Chowdhury issued a stern warning to members of the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) against corruption and emphasized the importance of fulfilling their duties with integrity.

Addressing senior BGB officials at the Border Conference Center at BGB headquarters in Peelkhana, Dhaka, on Saturday, September 7, Lt. Gen. Chowdhury underscored that incidents like the killing of Felani should never be repeated. He warned that corruption would not be tolerated, and strict disciplinary measures, including termination, would be taken against those found involved in bribery or corrupt practices.
