Speculation spread on Sunday that Bangladesh’s Inspector General of Police (IGP) Baharul Alam had resigned from his post. However, when contacted by the newspaper Amar Desh in the afternoon, Alam himself confirmed that he had not resigned. The clarification came after unverified reports circulated suggesting his departure from the position.
Baharul Alam was appointed as IGP on November 21, 2024, replacing outgoing IGP Md Moinul Islam. The government appointed him on a two-year contractual basis. Alam began his police career on January 21, 1986, as an Assistant Superintendent of Police from the 1984 BCS (Police) batch. He has served as head of the Special Branch and as Additional IGP at Police Headquarters. His international experience includes serving as a senior police liaison officer at the UN headquarters from 2009 to 2013 and as a senior police adviser in the UN peacekeeping mission in Afghanistan in 2015.
He retired from regular service in 2020 before being appointed to his current role. No further official statement was issued regarding the rumors.
