Several former advisers of Bangladesh’s recently dissolved interim government have reported receiving threatening phone calls from individuals falsely identifying themselves as officers of the Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI). The callers allegedly accused the advisers of irregularities during their tenure and warned them of consequences. Government and DGFI officials have confirmed that no such calls were made from their side. Two former advisers acknowledged receiving these mysterious calls, which were made through internet-based applications, often late at night or before iftar.
The threats emerged after the BNP-led government took office on 17 February 2026, following the 13th parliamentary election. The interim government, formed after the July uprising, formally stepped down the same day. One of the advisers, Faruk-e-Azam Bir Protik, said he reported the matter to relevant authorities, who assured him the calls were fake. Another unnamed adviser said several colleagues were similarly targeted and that the calls referenced the interim government’s ban on the Awami League.
Officials believe an unidentified group may be using the DGFI’s name to intimidate former advisers and create fear among them.
