Dhaka Metropolitan Police has set up check posts at more than 100 strategic points in the city as part of on-going countrywide special drive against illegal arms and criminals.

Law enforcing agencies launched the drive on May 28 in view of increasing incidents of secret killing, snatching, robbery and criminal activities.

DMP sources said the check posts were set up on May 30 in a bid to round up fugitive criminals, illegal arms holders, drug traders, recover drugs and stolen vehicles.

The special drive will continue for one month, DMP sources said.
