In this case, no police member should support any political party, give or accept special benefits, and consider themselves to be political activists.The advisor said that the police have a list of fascists. They are directly involved in creating unrest in the society and the state. Moreover, many criminals are released on bail and are committing crimes again.

However, innocent people should not be harassed.Calling on senior police officers, the Home Affairs Advisor said that steps should be taken to increase the professionalism, team spirit, discipline, and morale of subordinate police officers and troops.

Political harassment cases should be withdrawn quickly and false cases should be disposed of at the earliest.
