[Bangla Daily Star] The prime accused in a case filed for killing three cops last year was rubbed out in Bera upazila of Pabna yesterday.
The dear departed, Rafique alias Chalak Rafique, 32, was a regional leader of the 'Sarbahara' faction of outlawed Pubro Banglar Communist Party, said Mohammad Zahir, Sub-inspector (SI) of Bera Police Station.
On information, police recovered the bullet-hit body of Rafique from Shyampur char in the upazila around 11:00am and sent to Pabna General Hospital morgue for an appointment with Dr. Quincy.
The SI suspected that Rafique, hailed from Hasanpur village in Sujanagar upazila of the district, might have been killed by rivals in internal party conflict.
| As opposed to local cops who hadn't forgiven our corpse for killing their brothers in arms. |
Police recovered two red flags from near the spot.
| Not a hit, merely a full-contact game of Capture the Flag. The blue team won. |
Three cops -- SI Md Kafil Uddin, Nayek Abdul Wahed and constable Shafique of Dhalarchar police camp -- were bumped off by myrmidons at Daspara in Bera upazila on July 20 last year. |
