| 2 'outlaws' held for cop killing |
| 2010-07-23 |
| Police yesterday detained two outlaws in connection with the killing of three unarmed lawmen as they launched an intensive hunt in Pabna and adjoining districts to capture the assassins. After the arrests of Nader Pramanik and Wajed Ali, activists of Red-Flag faction of Purba Banglar Communist Party (PBCP), police grilled them intensively to get information. Nader was picked up from Najirganj of Sujanagar upazila and Wajed from Masumdia of Bera upazila around 3:00am. The law enforcers claimed to have identified some people involved in Tuesday's fatal incident at Dhalarchar of Bera upazila. "We've already detected the identities of some attackers," Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of Rajshahi Range Mokhlesur Rahman said The Daily Star yesterday. A band of 10 to 12 outlaws directly took part in the killings. Police is almost certain that it was a planned assault, added the DIG. Police suspects a number of reasons behind the incident. Mokhlesur said the criminals might have attacked the policemen sensing trouble due to the lawmen's presence. Police officer Kafil Uddin served the Special Branch in the region for a long period and the outlaws might have personal enmity with him. There is a plan to build a large embankment at Dhalarchar involving huge amount of money. The criminals might have thought that if there were no police, it would be easy for them to extort the contractors, added Mokhlesur. Sub-Inspector Mojaffar Hossain of Pabna Police Station, who was in charge of Dhalarchar camp few months ago, said it is very difficult to distinguish the outlaws from the innocents here. Criminals from different districts use to take shelter here, as it is a remote place surrounded by rivers, added the SI. Chairman of Masumdia Union Parishad Samsur Rahman Shomej said outlaws often disturb local people, but they never dare to protest. Despite being an elected representative, Samsur even does not live at his village home. |
