Mugger beaten to death
[Bangla Daily Star] A mugger was beaten to death by locals in the city's Gabtoli area yesterday morning and an alleged criminal was bullet-hit during a gunfight between his cohorts and Rapid Action Battalion in Lalbagh in the early hours yesterday. The mugger was identified as Anwar Hossain, 28, while the criminal as Faisal Parvez, 30, of Nazimuddin Road under Bangshal Police Station. He lives under Bangshal Police Station? Or soon will? Witnesses said a gang of three to four muggers intercepted Mohammad Shahjahan, a supervisor of Suryamukhi Paribahan, 35, near Karalipara Mosque around 5:30am when he was returning home after his work. The muggers stabbed him in the hand and took away Tk 5,000. When he cried out for help, locals rushed in, caught Anwar and beat him up while the others managed to flee. Anwar was taken to Dhaka Medical College Hospital where he succumbed to his injuries at about 8:30am. Meanwhile in Shahidnagar embankment area of Lalbagh, criminal Faisal sustained bullet injuries in a gunfight. A gang of three criminals opened fire on Rab personnel when a team of Rab-10 challenged them, Rab members said. Faisal was hit by bullets as the Rab personnel fired back. Faisal could not flee with bullet wounds in his leg while two others fled the scene. Save yourselves! You got it, Faisal. Feets don't fail me now! The Rab team recovered a revolver with three bullets, two cell phones and 100 yaba tablets from his possession. Yeah, sarge. Another guy high on the yaba. By the way sarge...what's yaba? Faisal was admitted to Mitford Hospital. Woah, he's alive? Did you guys run outta bullets or sumthin? Posted by: Fred 2010-05-14 |
