A sophisticated surveillance network, including observation towers and CCTV cameras, has been uncovered by police in Jungle Salimpur, long considered an “impenetrable empire” by law enforcement, allegedly used by criminals to track police movements. The drive resulted in the arrest of 22 individuals, including one woman, and the recovery of a significant cache of arms. DIG Ahsan Habib noted that criminals in Alinagar used 19 CCTV cameras, three DVRs, and observation towers to maintain a constant vigil against security forces. Authorities also recovered two pairs of binoculars and subsequently demolished the towers used by the criminals. Jungle Salimpur is split into two controlled zones: Chhinnomul, led by Rokon Uddin, and Alinagar, controlled by Mohammad Yasir.
