With the technical assistance of the Cyber Crime Unit of Rajshahi Metropolitan Police (RMP), mobile phones recovered in April 2025 were formally handed over to their  owners on Monday. 

The  mobile handover ceremony was held at RMP Headquarters, where the chief guest, RMP Commissioner Mohammad Abu Sufiyan, was present. He handed over 31 mobile phones recovered by RMP’s Cyber Crime Unit to their respective owners. Additionally, 43 more mobile phones, recovered from various RMP police stations, have already been returned to their owners.

It is mentioned that these phones were lost not only in Rajshahi city but also in various districts across the country. Based on General Diaries (GD) filed at relevant police stations, the Cyber Crime Unit used modern technology to identify and recover the mobile phones.

Commissioner Mohammad Abu Sufiyan said, the technology-driven efforts of the Cyber Crime Unit are playing a significant role in recovering citizens’ lost mobiles, reflecting the police’s commitment to public service. He highlighted that even phones lost several years ago have been recovered, marking a notable achievement for RMP.
