Bangladesh's Ministry of Home Affairs announced a significant reshuffle within the police force, transferring nine officers, including the Superintendent of Police (SP) for Faridpur. The Public Security Division issued two separate notifications detailing the changes on a recent day.

Faridpur SP Mohammad Nazrul Islam has been moved to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID). This transfer occurs just one day after The Daily Star published a report concerning the death of an individual in police custody in Madhukhali, Faridpur. Shahriar Mohammad Miazi, previously a deputy commissioner with the Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP), has been appointed as the new SP for Faridpur.

In broader changes, Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Iqbal Hossain was transferred from the Special Branch (SB) to Dhaka Range. DIG Ashik Saeed, formerly the Commissioner of Barishal Metropolitan Police, will now serve as DIG of Rajshahi Range. Concurrently, DIG Abu Rayhan Mohammad Saleh of Police Headquarters has been appointed as the police commissioner for Barishal Metropolitan Police. Other DIGs, including Mohammad Mustafizur Rahman, Rezaul Haque, and Mohammad Shahjahan, have also been reassigned to different ranges and battalions across the country.
