OC closed
Officer-in-charge of Shyamnagar Police Station was closed to the district police lines yesterday amidst protest rallies and human-chains by local Awami League arranged allegedly for police torture on a Juba League leader.
SP SM Maniruzzaman confirmed the closure of OC Fazlur Rahman.
Police arrested Shyamnagar upazila Juba League president Abdul Kader and its workers Abdul Jalil and Shahidul Islam for assaulting an official of the Narcotics Control Department and an on-duty police officer on April 3.
Two separate cases--one by Inspector Mosharraf Hossain of the department and another by SI Zafar of the police--were filed with the police station against the three Jubo League men.
Hearing the news of filing the cases, Jubo League men came to the police station around 8:00 pm and rebuked the OC.
At one stage, they assaulted duty officer Zafar and damaged some furniture of the police station. Police instantly arrested the Jubo League men and produced them before a court that sent them to jail.
Since then upazila Awami League and its front organisations have been demanding punishment to the OC.
