Police superintendents (SPs) who were involved in irregularities during the 2018 national election would either be made OSD or sent to forced retirement, said Local Government, Rural Development and Cooperatives and Youth and Sports Adviser Asif Mahmud Sajib Bhuiyan.

"All police superintendents who were in charge of the 64 districts during the 2018 'night-time voting' would either be made OSD or sent to forced retirement," the adviser said in a Facebook post yesterday evening (21 February).

Asif came up with the comment following the recent decision to send former deputy commissioners (DCs) who served during the controversial national elections of 2014, 2018, and 2024, to forced retirement or make them officers on special duty (OSD).
