The Chattogram Metropolitan Police (CMP) has announced a major reshuffle involving officers-in-charge (OCs) across all 16 police stations in the city ahead of the upcoming national parliamentary elections. According to an official order signed by CMP Commissioner Hasib Aziz on December 6, the transfers were conducted internally among existing OCs through a lottery-based process. Under the new arrangement, several key postings have been exchanged, including Abdul Karim from Kotwali to Panchlaish, Aftab Uddin from Bakalia to Kotwali, and Abdur Rahim from Sadarghat to Bandar. Other notable changes include Shahinur Alam moving from Khulshi to Karnaphuli and Babul Azad from Double Mooring to Chawkbazar. The reshuffle also affects stations such as Bayezid, Chandgaon, Halishahar, and Patenga. Police officials said the move aims to ensure neutrality, operational readiness, and effective law enforcement during the election period. One OC, Shafiqul Islam of Chawkbazar, has been reassigned to the Counter Terrorism and Intelligence Unit (CTSB). The EPZ police station is expected to receive a new OC soon, pending appointment.
