Bangladesh kills 100, arrests 7,000 in anti-drug drive
Bangladesh security forces have killed over 100 people and arrested about 7,000 in a nationwide anti-drug drive that was launched this month. The campaign, which is aimed at curbing the surge in trade of methamphetamine along the country's borders, was approved by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. "The process will continue until it's eradicated totally," a senior police official said.
