Dhaka, Aug. 5 -- Transparency International Bangladesh (TIB) has reported that 761 cases have been filed against police officers nationwide in the 11 months following the fall of the previous government. These cases involve 1,168 officers, of whom 61 have been arrested to date.

While some internal disciplinary actions have been taken, the report underscores a persistent lack of substantial accountability, reflecting the government's limited capacity and political will to fully address the issue.

The findings were presented on Monday at TIB's conference room in Dhaka's Midas Centre, as part of the organisation's report titled New Bangladesh: Observations on a Year after the Fall of the Authoritarian Government.
