| [Bangla Daily Star] Villagers beat up nine persons, including a journalist, suspecting them as robbers in Ketua village Thursday night. Locals said villagers beat up a group of youths who were returning home from a friend's house around 9:00pm. Police rescued the victims and held them at Chandpur Model Police Station. The detained were Shawkat Ali, a local correspondent of daily Banglabazar, Habibur Rahman, Arif, Kamrul Islam, Jitu, Fahim Akter Nijum, Saddam Hossain, Jahangir Hossain and Arif Hossain. Abdur Rahim, sub-inspector of the police station, said police detained the youths to save them from mob beating. "We identified the youths after talking to some of their acquaintances at the police station," he added. Abdur Rahim added that the friends of the youths were beaten too, as they soon went to Ketua. Three of them were severely injured and are undergoing treatment at Chandpur General Hospital. The detained were sent to jail under section 54. |

| #1 "Habibur Rahman, Arif, Kamrul Islam, Jitu, Fahim Akter Nijum, Saddam Hossain, Jahangir Hossain and Arif Hossain.".....sounds like a Moslem group doesnt it.? Passing through Ketua Village (after dark) on their way to the local Mosque( somewhere else)? Ketua Village couldnt possibly be a Hindu village could it? And the police Chief is named Abdur Rahim? Uh huh. Not a Hindu name either. And the Moslem "friends" rushed right back to straighten things out with the residents of Ketua Village after seeing their buds at the jail with their faces looking like strawberry jam? and the "detained" were sent to Jail under section 54? Uh huh. For their own protection presumably. Where they are sure to meet Big Mustapha( the Bint ) who will introduce them to HIS friend, Alice the Mustache in the cells. Shake me down and roll me over and do it again. Its fun being a laidback Moslem AND you can drink that sweet Palm Toddy and sing in the choir. Now if they could just manage to manufacture Ballpoint Pens they could sell them in the Bazaar and buy a boat to go up river in. |
