The Detective Branch (DB) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) will now investigate the killing of assistant superintendent of police (ASP) Mizanur Rahman, reports UNB. The case was transferred to the DB Thursday evening, said Inspector (Investigation) Shah Akhteruzzaman Ilias of the police station.
ASP Mizanur Rahman of Dhaka Highway Police was found dead at the Mirpur Beribandh (Embankment) in the capital’s Rupnagar area on Wednesday.
Mizanur, who joined police as a sub-inspector in 1988, set out from his Uttara residence after Fazr prayers for his workplace at Savar, police said. Before his current posting nine months back, Mizanur was a staff officer to deputy inspector general of highway police. It was still not clear whether he was killed on the spot or his body was dumped there. Victim’s younger brother Masum Parvez filed a case with the Rupnagar Police Station accusing several unknown miscreants on the same day.
