Tales from the Crossfire Gazette, Weekend Edition
2005-10-23
A regional leader of the outlawed Purba Banglar Communist Party (PBCP) was killed in “crossfire” during a shootout between his accomplices and police in Sirajganj early yesterday.
Our story begins ...
Police on Thursday night arrested the outlaw leader, Hossain Ali, 35, at Joydebpur in Gazipur district ...
... no, I have no idea where that is either ...
... and after 'handling' him handed him over to Solonga police in Sirajganj the following day.
"Cheez, Ali, you look the worse for wear! Wanna answer some more questions?
A team of Solonga police, following his confessional statement during interrogation, ...
"I confess! I confess! Whatever it was, I done it!"
... took him to Ghurka Thakpara area to recover illegal firearms early yesterday.
Can't have illegal firearms lying around, ya know.
According to police, ...
... and who else can tell us ...
... when the team reached the area at about 3:00am, ...
... right on time ...
... accomplices of Hossain Ali opened fire on them, prompting the law enforcers to retaliate.
"The coppers got Ali! Open indiscriminate fire!"
Hossain Ali was caught in the crossfire when he tried to escape during the shootout.
No mention of whether it was a sucking head wound or a sucking chest wound.
He died on the spot.
[sniff] I love a happy ending!
Police recovered one shutter-gun and returned it to the police lockup from whence it came, four bullets and some sharp weapons from the shooting spot.
Sporks?
Three policemen were also injured in the shootout and are undergoing treatment at a local hospital.
A hernia, a strained back and a barked shin.
The body of Hossain Ali was sent to Sirajganj General Hospital morgue for autopsy.
"Dang, Sam, another one!"
"That's what happens when you work the morning shift, Dr. Quincy!"
Police said Hossain Ali of Charia Kalibari village under Solonga upazila was wanted in eight criminal cases, including one for murder.
And now he's dead.
