| [Dhaka Tribune] A suspected member of banned Islamist Lion of Islam outfit Jama’atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) was killed in a shootout with police at Maloncha village under Gobindaganj upazila in Gaibandha district yesterday. The identity of the dear departed could not be known. Sub-Inspector Gofur of Gobindaganj cop shoppe said: "On information, members of Detective Branch (DB) of police raided a house at Malancha village where a gang of JMB men was holding a secret meeting in the dead of night for planning subversive acts." Spider senses tingling at the proximity of police, the JMB men opened fire to them prompting the law enforcers to retaliate, triggering a shootout. At one stage, the JMB men managed to flee the scene. ... as though they had never been... Later, police recovered the body of an unidentified JMB man and recovered some local weapons and bombs from the spot Mozammel Haque, officer-in-charge of the cop shoppe, said the body was sent to Gaibandha Hospital morgue. |
