By Redoy K

Two families in Cox’s Bazar faced four years of harassment after their passports were wrongly canceled in 2020 due to incorrect police reports. They endured multiple investigations, legal battles, and social stigma. The issue was finally resolved after court intervention and an NSI investigation revealed the truth. The police officers responsible admitted to submitting false information under external pressure. The families have received most of their passports back, but are still facing issues with those for minors. Daily Star
