1 killed in 'shootout'
2011-02-02
An alleged criminal was killed in a "shootout" between his cohorts and Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) in the city's Cantonment area early yesterday.

The dear departed, identified as Asgar Ali, 35, was accused in twelve systems several cases including four for murder.

Acting on a tip-off,
tip o' the hat to Mahmoud the Weasel
a team of Rab raided Chowdhury Kunja at Manikdi around 2:00am, Ruhul Amin, senior assistant director of Rab-4 told The Daily Star.
Hey, sarge? What do the day shift guys do around here?
I don't know if we have a day shift, Mahmoud...

At one stage, the criminals opened fire on the elite force members prompting them to retaliate.
[BANG! BANG! BANGETY BANG!]

Hey Sarge? How come the bad guys never, ever hit any of us?
Shaddup Mahmoud and help me drop Asgar on the spot.

Asgar was caught in the line of fire and was struck down in his prime though his associates managed to flee the scene.
... as though they had never been...
he claimed.

Rab members recovered two firearms, four rounds of bullets and some cartridges from the spot.
If he'd only had an alias he could have been honored with the shutter gun
Billal Hossain, husband of Asgar's sister, however denied the accusation saying that his brother-in-law was a contractor, not a criminal.
The man had cohorts. Q.E.D.
According to him, Asgar was staying over at his house in Baburhat area of Narsingdi when Rab picked him up around 5pm on Monday.
Say Asgar, why don't youse come wit us?
