The interim government has appointed Mainul Islam, former inspector general of police, or IGP, as an ambassador.
The Ministry of Public Administration issued a notification appointing him as the ambassador and entrusting him to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Tuesday.
The foreign ministry now will issue another notification deputing him to any country.
Mainul Islam was appointed the new IGP on Aug 6 after the fall of the Awami League government in a student-led mass civil uprising.
At that time, additional IGP Mainul was serving as the commandant of the Traffic and Driving School in Dhaka.
On Nov 20, Baharul Alam was appointed as the new police chief replacing Mainul.
