Former Inspector General of Police (IGP) of Bangladesh, Benazir Ahmed, was arrested in Dubai with the assistance of Interpol, nearly two and a half years after leaving his post. The arrest was confirmed by the UAE’s Directorate General of Federal Criminal Police through an email to Bangladesh’s National Central Bureau on June 12. Bangladesh’s Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed informed parliament that the arrest was made with Interpol’s cooperation.
Benazir Ahmed had been under an Interpol ‘red notice’ since February 2025, issued during the interim government period. Following confirmation of his arrest, social media saw widespread discussion. Shafiqul Alam, former press secretary to the chief adviser of the interim government, reacted sharply on Facebook, referring to Benazir as the “Butcher of Shapla” and declaring that his chapter had ended.
The arrest marks a significant development in ongoing legal and political processes involving former senior officials of Bangladesh’s law enforcement agencies.
