The police produced the policemen — nayek Nooruddin Reza and constables Rafiqul Islam and Motiar Rahman — in the chief metropolitan magistrates court, which sent them to jail. The policemen, in plainclothes, of the Janatabagh camp on Monday went to an autorickshaw garage, owned by one Billal Hossain at Rayerbagh at about 7:00pm, and allegedly demanded Tk 4,000 from him. The owner raised the alarm and the local people encircled the garage and caught all the three. The people assaulted them and handed them over to the Shyampur police with which the garage owner filed a case under the speedy trial act. The policemen said they had gone to the place chasing a criminal, but the people, instigated by the criminal, caught them as 'extortionists.' Posted by: seafarious 2005-04-15 |
