Police in Faridpur’s Sadarpur upazila have arrested Jalal Uddin Sek, a local Awami League leader, during the ongoing ‘Devil Hunt Phase-2’ operation aimed at maintaining law and order across Bangladesh. The arrest took place on December 21 at Sek’s residence in Char Bishnupur Union, where he served as president of the party’s Ward No. 6 unit.

According to Sadarpur Police Station Officer-in-Charge Md Abdul Al Mamun Shah, the operation was part of a broader effort to curb criminal activities and prevent unrest in the region. Authorities allege that Sek was involved with a banned political organization, though details of the charges have not been publicly disclosed. Police confirmed that a case against him is currently being processed.

The ‘Devil Hunt Phase-2’ campaign has been active nationwide, with law enforcement agencies continuing targeted operations in multiple districts. Officials indicated that similar drives will continue in the coming days to strengthen local security and deter political violence.
