A police officer in Chuadanga’s Alamdanga, previously fined by a mobile court, has been cleared of all charges. Additional District Magistrate B.M. Tarikuzzaman issued the order on Sunday, April 20, 2026, following an appeal hearing. The decision came after the officer, Touhidul Islam, was fined 500 taka on April 16 for allegedly breaking a fuel queue while collecting petrol for an emergency service vehicle.

The incident had sparked anger within the Chuadanga district police. According to a statement from Additional Superintendent of Police (Crime and Ops) Jamal Al Naser, law enforcement vehicles are entitled to collect fuel through an alternative line as per district administration directives. The police appealed the mobile court’s decision, arguing that the punishment was inappropriate.

Upon reviewing the case documents, the Additional District Magistrate found that proper legal procedures were not followed during the mobile court proceedings. The April 16 order was annulled, and Touhidul Islam was formally acquitted. However, the court noted that refunding the 500 taka fine was beyond its jurisdiction.
