Dhaka Metropolitan Police Commissioner Shafiqul Islam, who was the first chief of ATU, said that ahead of the national elections when police will be busy with election duty, militancy may see a rise and advised to keep a check on that.

Referring to the repression on Palestinians, he said Muslims across the world have deprivation and resentment which is a key factor behind the rise of militancy.

Chief of ATU Additional IG SM Ruhul Amin said the unit was formed on September 19 in 2017 in the backdrop of militant attacks in 2016 and 2017, but it started operation activities following enactment of rules in 2019.

He said the ATU along with other units have brought militancy under control.  Mentioning that the unit still could not reach the expected level in terms of training and equipment though it was formed five years back, he demanded government support to reach its height.
