Doctor and Police Officer Controversy: Some Questions on the Matter [VIDEO]

The Dhaka Times Desk Yesterday, a video of the verbal altercation between the female doctor and the police went viral. Many initially blamed the doctor after seeing the video. But that is not the reality. Some of the arguments are presented in this report.

Dr. Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University. The incident of Saida Sawkat Jenny's harassment was also revealed on the TV channel yesterday. Yesterday (Sunday) the issue went viral after it was published on various social media including Facebook.

In fact, what was wrong with the police inspector or the magistrate in that incident? Regarding the matter, we are presenting the matter in front of the readers by reviewing the videos and pictures of various media, especially Facebook. Then who was at fault will be clear.

Many have questioned why the lady doctor behaved like this with the police and the magistrate. But we have seen that the female doctor may not have behaved like that at all. But why he had to get out of the car and behave like that after everything was fine is to be seen. The police repeatedly asked to see his identity card. But it was seen that the doctor was wearing an apron, where the sticker of BMA was affixed. His car also had a BMA sticker. Below are some questions in form (which are common people's questions):

Does not having an ID card of a lady dressed as a doctor sitting in a car with a sticker of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University prove that she is not a doctor?

It was asked that if the vehicle had a secretariat sticker and a joint secretary or madam was present in the vehicle without an ID card, would the on-duty policemen have behaved the same way?

It is also questioned whether the policemen on duty would have behaved the same if the car had "Police" typed on a white paper and not an official sticker, or if a female officer in police uniform had been sitting inside the car without anything written on it.

It is further questioned whether an Associate Professor is an officer of the rank of Joint Secretary if he is senior. If an officer of this rank was in a car (with his office sticker) in uniform, would the duty police officer ask him to get out of the car? Seeing the sticker on his car and hearing his identification from outside the car, he should have been let off with dignity.

That is why this incident is indeed seen as deliberate harassment and abuse of power. Because here the officer should have stopped the car when he saw it had a sticker and the BMA sticker bearing identification there was no need to stop him and ask him for identification and force him to get out of the car. Although this time the duty magistrate behaved very politely. He also tried to stop the police officer repeatedly. It can be seen that the use of a post magistrate was correct. However, the use of police officers was not acceptable to anyone. The police force is playing an important role during the present corona epidemic. The nation is certainly grateful to them. But it would not be fair to blame the entire police force for a few police officers.

Maybe many people can question why the woman doctor behaved like this with the police? But this is also because of the strength of that female doctor or she managed to get out by showing strength Otherwise, if the common woman was dressed, she would have been subjected to more harassment.

In this time of lock down, it is our responsibility to help the movement of those who are engaged in the emergency services of the state, to make their work smoother.

A doctor is the frontline fighter of the current corona epidemic. We respect and honor them as a nation. But if those doctors are harassed without respect then it will be a really shameful chapter for the nation.
