The arrestees have primarily admitted that they were involved with the murder, the DC said. About Mind Aid Psychiatry and De-Addiction Hospital, he said the hospital is operating without permission of the authorities concerned. The authorities could not show any valid documents from the Department of Health. They do not have any permission from the Department of Narcotics Control either, the police official said. In the footage, it was seen that eight to nine people were beating the police officer after tying up his hands, the DC said, adding that no doctors were seen in the footage. "We think it was murder," the DC informed. The DC said that Anisul was working in Barishal. His family members took him to National Institute of Mental Health in Shyamoli first. But later he was shifted to Mind Aid Hospital. Police are collecting information about those who advised to shift him to this hospital, he said, adding that if someone from the government hospital is found involved, action will be taken against them. Yesterday morning, Anisul was taken to Mind Aid Hospital in the capital's Adabor area to be admitted for treatment, but died before the admission procedure ended.
