## History

[edit]

In 2009, the Criminal Investigation Department in Chittagong received an advanced forensic lab facility.[5]

The South Korean government provided training to 15 officers of the Criminal Investigation Department from 24 November to 10 December 2011 through the Korea International Cooperation Agency at Korea Police Investigation Academy.[6]

Following attacks on the indigenous Santal community in Gaibandha District in 2019, the Criminal Investigation Department was appointed to investigate. The charge sheet submitted by the CID was rejected by the Santal Community who alleged names of local Members of Parliament, Md. Abul Kalam Azad, and Managing Director of state-owned Rangpur Sugar Mill, Abdul Awal, was not included in the charge sheet but that of a dead Awami League leader was included.[7] The Santal plaintiff filed a no-confidence petition against the charge sheet with Gobindaganj court in January 2020.[7]

The Criminal Investigation Department arrested a man on the charge of making derogatory comments about the first doctor to die in the COVID-19 pandemic in Bangladesh.[8] On 6 July 2020, the Criminal Investigation Department started investigations against Member of Parliament Mohammad Shahid Islam, who had been detained in Kuwait on human trafficking and corruption charges.[9] On 22 November 2020, the CID arrested Tithy Sarkar, a student of Jagannath University, who was accused of making "derogatory" comments about Islam and Muhammad.[10] She had been missing since October 2020 when the comments first emerged on social media.[10]

The Criminal Investigation Department announced plans to establish a central database of licensed weapons in Bangladesh on 24 March 2021 using Automated Ballistic Identification Systems.[11]

The Deputy Inspector General of the Cyber Wing of the Criminal Investigation Department, Jamil Ahmed, investigated the laundering of 1 billion taka through streaming apps like BIGO Live by a group of Chinese and Bangladeshi nationals on 13 June 2021.[12] In July 2021, Additional Deputy Inspector General of CID Kamrul Ahsan stated that cryptocurrencies were illegal in Bangladesh, which was contradicted by Bangladesh Bank.[13]

On 6 August 2021, the Criminal Investigation Department was handed the cases against Faria Mahbub Piasha, Helena Jahangir, Moriom Akter Mou and Pori Moni who were detained in separate raids by Rapid Action Battalion.[14] Sheikh Omar Faruque, Additional Deputy Inspector General of the Criminal Investigation Department and the investigation officer four, was sent into forced retirement by the government of Bangladesh after he was criticised by Bangladesh High Court for violating its directive by placing Pori Moni on remand multiple times.[15]
