[Dhaka Tribune] Rapid Action Battalion![]() Maw! They're comin' to get me, Maw! two suspected criminals for their involvement in the recent gang-rape of a Garo woman inside a moving microbus in Dhaka. The arrestees are Ashraf alias Tushar, 35, and microbus driver Zahidul Islam Lavlu, 26. However, we can't all be heroes. Somebody has to sit on the curb and applaud when they go by... the RAB officials earlier told the Dhaka Tribune that three people have been arrested. RAB legal and media wing Assistant Director Major Maksudul Alam said: "A team of RAB conducted a drive in Kolapara upazila of Potuakhali district and held Tushar at around 1am on Wednesday." Later, based on Tushar's information, the RAB members arrested Lavlu from the Gulshan 1 area at around 5:25am, he said. The law enforcers also seized the mircobus, which was used in the crime, from the capital's Banani area. Five unknown criminals forcefully took the 21-year-old Garo woman inside a grey-coloured microbus while she was waiting at the Biswa Road bus stand for a bus on May 21. The criminals, including the driver of the microbus, violated her on the running vehicle and threw her out of it in Uttara. Later, a case was filed with Vatara cop shoppe in this regard. |
