Two RAB members hurt as criminals hurl bombs | |
2006-12-05 | |
No, no, no, no, this can't be ... Two Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) members were injured at the city's Lalbagh on Sunday when criminals hurled bombs at the law enforcers during a raid that yielded arrest of six. The Rab team also seized two firearms, two bullets and a few homemade bombs from the spot during the raid, said a Rab press release. Acting on a tip-off, a team of Rab-10 conducted the raid at 8 No Daroga Bari at Shahidnagar in Lalbagh at around 5:30pm where the criminals were planning to commit some crimes. So far so good ... Sensing the presence of the law enforcers, ... "Hark! Our spider senses are tingling!" ... the criminals threw bomb at them from the second floor of the building, leaving the two Rab members wounded. No fair! Dacoits aren't supposed to have bombs! The Rab team then encircled the house, broke in and All of whom will star in a Crossfire Gazette in the near future ... Liton sustained injury to his legs during the raid and was taken to Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH) for treatment.

#4 Sounds like complacency setting in: last week the RAB Maritime Division suffered a loss and now this. Time for some "Miscreant 101" refresher training. |

#2 What is RAB doing making raids at 5:30 p. m.? Even at this time of year there's way too much daylight for effective crossfire. |

#1 Jeez, can't they follow the script? You are supposed to open random, ineffective fire, not hurl bombs which might hurt someone. Of course, they weren't taking someone who had "confessed" to "recover an arms cache," so maybe the script doesn't apply. |
