Following the directive of the Election Commission, Officers-in-Charge (OCs) of stations under Dhaka Metropolitan Police, who have already completed six months in their respective police station, are going to be transferred soon.
Niyoti Roy, additional deputy police commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan Police`s Media and Public Relations division, confirmed the development on Sunday.
She also said that as the EC decided to transfer all the OCs in phases, the DMP will send their list of OCs to be moved to the EC for its approval.
Earlier on November 30, the Election Commission asked the Home Ministry to transfer OCs of police stations all over the country in phases. There are over 650 police stations in the country - 50 of them under DMP.
The EC asked to prioritise the transfer of those officers who have been discharging duties at their respective police station for more than 6 months first.
