 A regional leader of outlawed Biplobi Communist Party (BCP) was killed in a 'shootout' between his cohorts and police at Barabaria village under Mirpur upazila in Kushtia yesterday.
| Yet another Biplobi cadre! At this rate, the splinters are going to have to meld together if they want to be able to have a respectable self-accusation meeting. |
The deceased, Maznu Mondol alias Abdullah, 36,
| I agree Abdullah whispers in the ear much better than Maznu, and as an Arab name it would appeal to the religious, but still, what kind of alias is Abdullah, especially for a good communist? Surely Marx or Stalin would have been better choices! |
| What's 'man of steel' in Bangali? |
son of late Sawdagar Mondol of Chakmondolpur of Mirpur upazila was accused in six cases, including two for murder, police said.
Acting on a tip-off, a joint team from detective branch and Mirpur police raided Barabaria graveyard
where some BCP cadres were holding a meeting around 4:30am.
| Including the nearly exhausted Mahmoud the Weasel. He's been working long hours lately. |
 The outlaws defied orders of the law enforcers to surrender
| "No! And you can't make us!!" |
and opened fire forcing them to retaliate.
"Can too!"
[Bang bang bangety-bang!]
"So there!" |
The law enforcers later found Maznu lying on the ground while his accomplices managed to flee the scene.
| Maznu was neatly laid out in the graveyard, a pretty picture. |
They also recovered one LG gun and four bullets from there.
| "It's back to the evidence locker for you, my pretties!" |
