Dhaka, Feb. 14 -- Police used batons to disperse a group of dismissed police officers who had lost their jobs over various complaints during the 15 years of the Awami League government.
The incident took place around 12:30pm on Thursday near the Secretariat in Dhaka when the protestors, including former constables, attempted to meet with the chief advisor to demand the restoration of their jobs.
The dismissed personnel had gathered earlier at the Jatiya Press Club, from where they launched a procession toward the Secretariat, expressing frustration over their dismissal.
As they tried to march closer to the building, police forces intervened and used batons to push them back, returning the protestors to the Press Club area.
