"Ali Azam, assistant sub-inspector [ASI] of the Madunaghat police outpost under Hathazari police station went to Yunus's village home Naju Miya Hat on 3 September," Mohammad Mohiuddin, in-charge of the police outpost, told The Business Standard.
"The visit was part of a regular process," he added.
Sources at Madunaghat said the visit was made after Bangladesh Police's District Special Branch sought information on Yunus.
However, when contacted, the ASI refused to make any comments regarding the issue.
Besides, a phone call to Hathazari police station Inspector Md Amir Hossen went unanswered.
