A CCTV camera installed at a polling center in Kishoreganj upazila of Nilphamari was stolen ahead of Bangladesh’s 13th national parliamentary election, raising concerns over pre-election security. The incident came to light on Tuesday morning, February 10, 2026, when officials visited the Noyankhal School and College polling center in Bahagili Union and discovered the missing camera. No suspects have yet been identified.
According to local sources, the CCTV cameras had been installed a few days earlier to strengthen security at the center. Teachers left the school after closing it on Monday, and upon returning the next morning, they found that one camera from the front section of the building was missing. The school’s principal, Jalilur Rahman, confirmed the theft.
Upazila Nirbahi Officer and Assistant Returning Officer Tanzima Anjum Sohania said authorities were aware of the incident and that legal procedures were underway. The theft has prompted calls for tighter security and monitoring at polling centers before the election.
