He had been made an officer on special duty (OSD) on 21 June, following the circulation of a controversial video involving him.
A three-member inquiry committee was formed to investigate the incident and assess whether his actions violated civil service discipline. He was then removed.
Since Ashraf's removal, Wahid Hossain, deputy director (local government) of the district administration, had been serving as the acting DC.
