Hasan's house on Saturday afternoon.

Chittagong city. CMP Commissioner Hasan Md. Shawkat Ali went there to inquire
about the incident of beating him and express his regret. He later spoke to
reporters.
CMP Commissioner Hasan Md. Shawkat Ali said that the highest
action will be taken against the accused police members as per the rules. In
the meantime, they have been suspended. A departmental case is also under
process. If anyone else is involved in the incident, action will also be taken
