SP’s Phones Seized Over Alleged Leak of Police Information

Two mobile phones belonging to Mohammad Jahangir Alam, deputy commandant of the Reserve Range Force (RRF) under the Chattogram Range Police, have been seized over allegations that he leaked sensitive internal police information to the Awami League. One is his personal phone and the other is an official device. Both have been sent to Dhaka for forensic examination.

Chattogram Range Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Abdul Quddus Chowdhury confirmed the development on Wednesday night, November 11, 2026.

According to multiple sources within the range police, the DIG questioned Jahangir Alam on Tuesday over the allegations. After preliminary indications of a possible information leak emerged, the two mobile phones he used were seized for examination.

Additional DIG (Operations) of the Chattogram Range, Safizul Islam, has been assigned to investigate the allegations. He will submit a report after completing the inquiry.

DIG Abdul Quddus Chowdhury said, “He (Jahangir Alam) was called in connection with some administrative matters. A committee has been formed to investigate the issue. As the investigation is ongoing, it would not be appropriate to disclose details at this stage.”

Additional DIG Safizul Islam said the two phones had been sent to the Special Branch (SB) in Dhaka for forensic examination. He added that a report would be submitted if evidence of any exchange of messages was found.

Citing multiple sources within the range police, reports have alleged that information indicating contact with the Awami League was found on Jahangir Alam’s mobile phone. However, his response to the allegations could not be obtained. As the phones have been seized, it was not possible to contact him.

Jahangir Alam joined the Bangladesh Police on December 1, 2010. He is currently serving at the RRF office under the Chattogram Range.
