2 Rab killing suspects killed in 'crossfire'
Two people who were suspected to have links with the killing of two Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) personnel at Amin Bazar on March 3 were killed in crossfire during a shootout between their accomplices and members of Rab in Savar early yesterday.
"They kill us, we send dem to da morgue. Dat's the Bangladesh way!"
The dead were identified as Adnan, 23, son of Abdul Sobhan of Sherpur, and Baset, son of Hares Ali of Borodeshi in Savar. Police sources claimed both were members of "Gangchil Bahini", a notorious criminal group of Amin Bazar.

The two were caught in the crossfire at Modhumoti Model Town around 4:00am yesterday...
Because there are fewer witnesses at that time
when Rab-11, after having had their confessional statements,
"They killed two of us. Bring me the Number Ten."
raided the area along with them to recover illegal firearms.
Ah, an old story that never goes out of style
As Rab personnel went there, accomplices of Adnan and Baset opened fire on the elite force.
"WE was fired on, see! So we had to shoot them, I mean, return fire."
Rab members retaliated and a firefight ensued, sources said.
"Bang, bang, bangittybangbang!"
Adnan received four bullets in his body while Baset received six.
"For what you two are about to receive, we're truly thankful."
Rab recovered a pistol and two bullets from the spot. The accomplices of Adnan and Baset managed to escape capture.
Funny, ain't it. The accomplices always manage to disappear into the night without leaving a trace. It's like they were never really there.
Both the dead were captured by Rab-4 a few days ago in Sherpur on suspicion of having links with the murder of two Rab officials at Amin Bazar on March 3.
I'm sure their stay with the RAB was unpleasent
Adnan, who used to live at Kaundia in Savar, and Baset were allegedly hiding in Sherpur to avert arrest. They were accused in a number of criminal cases including murder cases on twelve systems at different police stations in the capital, police sources claimed. The autopsies of the dead were conducted at Dhaka Medical College morgue yesterday.
"Dr Quincy! Two RAB specials for you!"
"Dammit Sam, VCU / Duke are tied with two minutes left. Just use the preprinted forms in my desk."
