UP member held with remote controlled bombs
2006-05-10
Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) yesterday arrested a union parishad member of Sajek in Khagrachhari and seized two remote controlled bombs and a China-made rifle at his house. Rab 7 of Chittagong went to the house, about 100 kilometres away from Khagrachhari town, of Althanga Pankhoa in the guise of arms traders and arrested him.

Rab 7 troops, led by Lieutenant Colonel Hasinur Rahman, took Althanga to Chittagong and they are quizzing him to learn more about his involvement with smuggling.
Next comes the 2AM road trip to pick up his 'arms cache'
The arrestee had been reportedly smuggling and selling arms to the former guerillas of the Shanti Bahini.
If they're buying arms, I'd say they aren't 'former' guerillas
