The Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) has transferred its Joint Commissioner (logistics) Md Imam Hossain, who allegedly offered bribe to Dhaka Metropolitan Police Commissioner, to the Public Order Management (POM) department.

The transfer was made in an office order signed by DMP Commissioner Md Shafiqul Islam on Tuesday.

This internal transfer came days after Shafiqul Islam in a letter to Inspector General of Police sought transfer of Imam on charge of offering the DMP commissioner bribe.

“Imam even offered the commissioner a percentage from procurement. And, that is why, he should not be working in DMP,” the DMP chief said in the letter.

The DMP commissioner further requested the police chief to take necessary steps regarding the issue.

Meanwhile, two more JC level officers of DMP were also transferred by the office order.

Joint commissioner (transport) Mainul Haque has been given the additional charge of joint commissioner (logistics) while joint commissioner (POM) Abdul Malek was transferred to the post of joint commissioner (protection and diplomatic security).
