Thirteen police superintendents (SPs) from various districts in Bangladesh have not been assigned to any district following a nationwide reshuffle ahead of the 13th National Parliamentary Election. Instead, they have been transferred to specialized police units such as the Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP), Special Branch (SB), Police Bureau of Investigation (PBI), and Criminal Investigation Department (CID). The reshuffle, conducted through a lottery at the Chief Adviser’s residence, aimed to ensure neutrality in law enforcement during the upcoming election. Senior officials from the Home Ministry and the Police Headquarters were present during the process. The Ministry of Home Affairs issued the official order, signed by Deputy Secretary Md. Mahbubur Rahman. Additionally, separate orders reassigned Rajshahi Metropolitan Police Commissioner Mohammad Abu Sufian to the Police Headquarters as DIG, while DMP Traffic Commissioner Zillur Rahman was appointed as the new Rajshahi Metropolitan Police Commissioner. The reshuffle is part of broader measures to maintain transparency and fairness in election-related policing.
