#5 Is this a rerun? When does the new season begin?
It only seems like a rerun, I have to check the names each time to make sure it's not. Even the Bangladesh papers are in on the gag, that's why they often put "crossfire" in quotes.

#6 I am still trying to define the word "gheraoed."

I kinda doubt the bandit was "instantly" killed.

That guy that met his end in the Crossfire™ met his end by the book. It can't get anymore by the book. My Father in Law and Brother in Law have visited Chittagong BTW.

#8 Why bother with an autopsy, all of these quys stick their head in the exact spot to be hit behind the right ear. After which a pipe gun and 2 bullets are recovered. Its amazing how alike these pipe guns are. You just can't tell one from another

#9 "Gheraoed" seems to mean "interrogated by a mob" based on the context of this and several other uses I Googled.

#11 "Gheraoed" seems to mean "interrogated by a mob"

I think I've found a domestic usage: "The Democrats gheraoed Rice during her confirmation hearings."
