An outsourced employee working on the MRT Line-5 Northern Route project has been detained for allegedly taking unauthorized photographs and videos inside a restricted Key Point Installation (KPI) area of a Metro Rail depot and spreading misleading content on social media.
The information was disclosed on Wednesday (July 22) by the Dhaka Mass Transit Company Limited (DMTCL), the operator and maintenance authority of the Metro Rail system.
In a statement, DMTCL said it has adopted a strict security policy to protect the country's modern and environmentally friendly mass transit system.

The company also urged all personnel and stakeholders to strictly comply with security protocols and regulations to safeguard the confidentiality of restricted Metro Rail facilities.
