Home Affairs Advisor Lieutenant General Md. Jahangir Alam Chowdhury (Retd.) has said that security and human rights are complementary to each other in the management of prison administration in the current global context. He further commented that it is the responsibility of the state to protect the basic human rights of prisoners and then bring them back to society as reformed citizens.
\nHe said these things while addressing the closing parade of the 63rd batch of basic training course for women prison guards at the parade ground of the Prison Training Center located on the Kashimpur Prison campus in Gazipur on Tuesday (January 27) morning.
\nHe said that ensuring humane treatment, fair opportunities, non-discrimination and social dignity for prisoners is not only a legal obligation; it is a reflection of the moral position of the state. Therefore, security of prisoners in prisons must be ensured along with human rights. And the role of trained and humane prison guards in implementing this is undeniable.
\nThe advisor said that prisons are very sensitive and important institutions and an integral part of the criminal justice system. Prisons ensure the safe detention of prisoners through the justice system of the state. The role of prison administration is very important in the process of crime prevention, correction of criminals and social rehabilitation.
\nHe said that the role of prison guards is very important in building a non-discriminatory, fair, transparent and accountable prison administration. Taking the great responsibility of patriotism to heart, the new trainees will play an effective role in implementing this through honesty, efficiency and professionalism. He said that corruption is the biggest enemy of the state. Corruption does not only cause economic losses; it erodes state institutions from within and breaks the trust of the people.
\nThe advisor said that if a prison guard acts as part of personal interests, greed or political expediency, then he not only breaks the law – he also weakens the foundation of the state. A prison guard is not a member of any party, the protector of any vested interest group – he is a public servant paid by the tax money of the innocent people of the state. Therefore, public welfare should be their only vow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
