Crossfire Gazette Roundup
2006-05-16
May 15 : At least 41 terrorists belonging to outlawed party were killed in 'encounters' with Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) and police in 35 incidents at different places of Chuadanga district from November 26, 2004 to May 10, this year.
Different times, different places, same script
Of the total, 37 persons were killed in 'crossfire' with police and four killed in 'encounters' with RAB, sources said.
"Crossfire" is when they're "accidently shot" while 'trying to escape". "Encounter" is when they're shot "resisting arrest" or when they use up their crossfire quota, whichever comes first. Your milage may vary.
The dead persons are Shanu of Jiban Nagar, Shamser of Darsana, Azammel Polash of Mehespur, Amirul of Alamdanga, Mizanur of Alamdanga, Feroz of Chuadanga, Jasim of Chuadanga, Atiar of Sadar upazila, Sohel Rana of Sadar upazila, Jhankar of Sadar upazila, Anawarul Zihad of Sadar upazila, Sahar Ali of Alamdanga, Hasibul of Alamdanga, Ekramul of Moheshpur, Edris Ali of Sadar upazila, Sumon of Chuadanga town, Pavel of Alamdanga, Miraz of Alamdanga, Abdul Mannan of Alamdanga, Habibul of Horinakundu, Mabud of Alamdanga, Sentu of Alamdanga, Khairul of Horinakundu, Borhan of Alamdanga, Mosharof of Sadar, Shahidul Islam Kota of Chuadanga town, Sharif Dactar of Mirpur, Rifat of Alamdanga, Kuddus of Damurhuda, Hashem of Alamdanga, Malek of Alamdanga, Khabir of Alamdanga, Uzzal of Alamdanga, Zia of Alamdanga, Arif of Damurhuda, Shaban of Meherpur, Jeneral of Alamdanga, Niamat of Alamdanga, Miraj of Sadar upazila, Robiul of Alamdanga and Shuknal of Alamdanga.

#1  Their mothers may miss them, the RAB didn't. Hard to miss at that range, of course.
Only 41 in less than 6 months- I thought there was more. The loving detail in which each exit is celebrated may give that impression, I guess.
