A leader of Purbo Banglar Communist Party (PBCP) was killed in a 'shootout' between Rapid Action Battalion and his cohorts in Bagmara upazila early Wednesday.We have no idea where that is.
The deceased Elahi Baksh Mithu, 40, of Baje Goalkandi village was the regional commander of Purba Banglar Communist Party (ML-Lal Potaka) unit in Chapainawabganj.
I guess he won't be telling the grandkids what he did when he turned 40.
40 is a ripe old age for a Purba Banglar ...
A Rab member, Havildar M Abdul Wahab, was also injured in the incident, says a press release.
An ace bandage for the sprain and he'll be right as rain.
Tipped off
a tip o' the hat to Mahmoud the Weasel ...
that PBCP cadres, who were behind police killing and arms looting incident of Dhalar Char in Pabna, were planning similar attack on Bagmara police,
Gonna attack the police? No wonder Elahi didn't live to see 41 ...
a team led by ASP Shahjahan of Rab-5 Bagmara camp raided Bagicha Goalkandi area at about 3:00am
The best time of the night to
where the group was holding a clandestine meeting.
I'm disappointed: where were they meeting? Orange grove? Banana plantation? Palm forest? These details are important, you know ...
Sensing presence of the elite force,
"Hark! My spider-sense is tingling!"
the gang opened fire forcing them to fire back that triggered a ten-minute 'gunfight'.
Alas, only one body was hit in the 'gunfight' ...
Later, Rab men found Mithu's bullet hit body lying on the ground.
One behind each ear ...
His cohorts, however, managed to flee the scene.
As if they were never there in the first place ...
A 7.65mm USA-made pistol, three bullets, one magazine, three sharp weapons and two leaflets were recovered from the spot.
No shutter gun?
Mithu was accused in three cases including one for Taherpur police murder, said the Rab.
So his mother didn't love him ...
