In view of the Gulshan cafe attack, police have now sought the help of citizens to report "suspicious activity" on the social networking platforms.

The Dhaka Metropolitan Police floated a short message via Facebook today urging citizens to alert  police with information of suspicious online activities.

“If anyone knows of any online activity related to religious terrorism that is threatening to the state or people, any suspicious post, ID, link or cyber terrorism related threat circulating in social media, immediately email it to cyberunit@dmp.gov.bd,” it read.

The post also urged everyone to share the post and spread the word.
