 [Bangla Daily Star] An outlawed party leader was killed in a shootout between Rab and his cohorts at Khaskarra village in Alamdanga upazila of Chuadanga district early yesterday.
| We have no idea where that is. |
The dead was identified as Saidur Rahman, 32, a ringleader of Janajuddha, one of the factions of Purbo Banglar Communist Party.
| As opposed to a Biplobi commie ... |
Police said Saidur, hailed from the village, was leading the outfit for regrouping the party cadres in the area.
| So he was at least a number three ... |
Acting on a tip off, ...
| ... that would be Mahmoud the Weasel ... |
... a team of the police and Rab raided a mango orchard ...
| Who has a secret meeting in a mango orchard? |
... of the village where Saidur and his men were holding a secret meeting at about 4:15 am.
| A little late but perhaps the RAB had a previous engagement ... |
Police said sensing presence of the law enforcers,
| "Hark! My spider-sense is tingling!" |
the gang threw two bombs targeting the law enforcers, prompting them to open fire on the outlawed party cadres.
| Throwing bombs is a new twist. |
Saidur was killed in 'crossfire' during the shootout ...
| ... so his feets failed him ... |
... but his accomplices managed to flee, according to police.
| As if they were never there in the first place. |
Police recovered one revolver, three bombs and 20 bullets from the spot.
"Which spot?"
"That spot!" |
Saidur was wanted in twelve systems five cases, including murder.
| So his mother didn't love him. |
