A police officer named Abdul Khalek was beaten by a mob in Dhunat upazila of Bogura on Monday morning after being accused of taking a bribe from a motorcyclist. The incident occurred around 11 a.m. at the Hukum Ali Bus Stand area on the Dhunat-Sherpur regional road, where a police checkpoint had been set up. Khalek, who serves at Dhunat Police Station, was reportedly collecting documents from motorcyclists when the allegation arose.
According to police and local sources, the checkpoint was led by TSI Abul Kalam Azad, with officers Abdul Khalek and Abdul Hamid on duty. During the inspection, one motorcyclist was fined for not wearing a helmet, while Khalek allegedly took 1,000 taka from another rider and released him. Locals, noticing the alleged bribe, attacked Khalek, who later fled the scene. Another officer was surrounded by the crowd until SI Mostafizar Rahman arrived and rescued them.
Abdul Khalek denied the allegation, claiming no money was found on him. TSI Abul Kalam Azad stated he was unaware of any bribe but confirmed that locals assaulted the officer.
