What's home ministry up to?

When people all over the country were still in shock after the brutal murder of Bishwajit, another drama unfolded. Top terrorist Bikash Kumar Biswas was released from Kashimpur jail under strict secrecy. It has been reported that it was done by a special order from the home ministry.
Jail Super Ashraful Islam refrained from making any comments and Gazipur Police Super Abdul Baten said that they do not know anything about the matter. Senior officials of the police and the detective branch do not know anything about the secret release of Bikash, a convicted murderer.
It is like opening the doors of the cages of ferocious animals and letting them loose so that they can kill freely. We are deeply frightened by these events; all hopes for a peaceful Bangladesh are fading away.
