Thugs snatch accomplice from Rab
[Bangla Daily Star] A gang of criminals snatched their accomplice from the members of Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) in broad daylight yesterday afternoon, injuring a major of the elite force in the city's Mirpur.
Injured Major Khandaker Golam Sarwar was rushed to Combined Military Hospital with severe wounds in his head.
Rab-4 official sources said, a team of Rab, acting on a tip-off, went to Nam Garden in Mirpur Section-10 at around 2:00pm to nab the associates of listed criminal Shahar Ali.
Shahar was earlier killed in a gunfight with Rab on Saturday in Mirpur.
The criminals hit Major Sarwar on the head after he caught one of their accomplices during the raid.
Later, the criminals sped away by a microbus with their cohort, Rab officials said.
Commander SM Abul Kalam Azad, director of legal and media wing of Rab, told The Daily Star, "Criminals beat up the major with an iron rod and later fled the scene leaving him severely injured."
I'm shocked. All this time we thought the gangs were made up of moondust and tags of mist. |
