They also tossed in the calaboose a person in this connection. Masudur Rahman, additional deputy commissioner (ADC) of DMP, said police, acting on a tip-off, conducted a raid at Jubo Dal activist Ataur Rahman Litu's Meerhajirbagh house at about 9:30am. They recovered the explosives from a sand-pile lying beside the stairs on the ground floor of the multi-storied building, he said. Law enforcers tossed in the calaboose Belayet Hossain, 40, manager-cum-caretaker of the house, as the building owner Litu was on the run, said the ADC.
