Ooooh, we're got the A-team writing today

"Feet, don't fail me...KAPOW!....urp, rosebud"
Two pipeguns, five rounds bullet of gun, three empty cartridges were recovered by RAB members from the spot.
Musta been a big shot to rate two pipeguns
He was wanted in a numbers of criminal cases including murders, bomb blasting, kidnapping for ransom and extortion of Rupsha upazila. He was also accused of Quamrul murder case of Aichgati and Abdur Rahman killing case of Nandanpur and was involved with grenade attack at Aichgati police camp under Rupsha upazila in the district.
