In our country, law enforcement agencies often enjoy impunity. In the name of disciplinary actions, law enforcers who violate rules of engagement or commit corruption, escape from justice. A few days ago, an opposition activist died while in police custody. His family members alleged that there were signs of torture on his body, while the police denied any wrongdoing. Except for verbal statements, the police did not launch a thorough investigation to determine what actually happened. There is a law that prohibits any torture of detainees in custody. However, the law is hardly being applied.

Those who violate the very law and order they are supposed to uphold must be brought to justice.
