DSE installs CCTV


The Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) has tightened its security system by installing close circuit television (CCTV) at the various points of the bourse.

"We have decided to install CCTV at the bourse followed by the bombings in London on July 7," DSE Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Salahuddin Ahmed Khan told the news agency yesterday.

The new system has started working from August 20, he said, adding, "Now we will be able to identify persons entering into the exchange."

He said a continuous vigilance and monitoring from three points of the bourse is going on.

Currently, the CCTV has been installed at nine points including lifts, entrances and footpaths in front of the DSE.

A total of Tk 0.75 million was invested for installing CCTV, he said.
