Ensuring the protection of the persons who file a case against a member of law enforcement agencies.  If any custodial death is occurred, this incident must be informed to the National Human Rights Commission (JAMAKON), Bangladesh within 24 hours.  Amending the National Human Rights Commission Act, 2009 to empower the NHRC to investigate human rights violations by law enforcement agencies. The Torture and Custodial Death (Prevention) Act, 2013 does not fully comply with Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CAT), 1984, though Bangladesh has an obligation under international law to prevent acts of torture and custodial death. Few provisions of the Act remain ambiguous and lack clarity as to Bangladesh government’s obligations. ‘We are yet to realise how contemptuous and shameful the custodial deaths are for the state’, said the chair of the discussion, Prof. Dr. Mizanur Rahman, Chairman, JAMAKON. In his closing remarks, Prof. Dr. Mizanur Rahman stated that about 70 percent of the complaints of violation of human rights received by the NHRC are against the law enforcement agencies and about half of all complainants raise allegations of torture by the law enforcement agencies. The commission looks into the complaints and submits its findings to the Ministry of Home Affairs. He expressed his disappointment that representatives of the law enforcement agencies were not present in this event, in spite of being invited by JAMAKON. Key Recommendations seminar:    24 JAMAKON from the Section 5 of the Act should be amended by adding the provision of judicial investigation instead of the current provision of investigation against the law enforcement agencies by the law enforcement agencies. made in the neighbours as
