The data allegedly sold included national identity details of citizens, cell phone call records, and other 'classified secret information' according to a letter signed by a senior Bangladeshi intelligence official.
The letter, dated April 28, was written by Brigadier General Mohammad Baker, director of Bangladesh's National Telecommunications Monitoring Center, confirming the legitimacy and contents.
The police agents were caught after investigators analyzed logs of the NTMC's systems to track their access, revealing their identities - a police superintendent from ATU and an assistant police superintendent from RAB 6.
RAB 6, where one of the accused officials served, was sanctioned by the U.S. government in 2021 over connections to disappearances and extrajudicial killings.
