Robber killed in gunfight
2016-06-22
[Dhaka Tribune] A robber was killed and three police personnel were also injured
...a splinter, a stubbed toe, and a blister on a trigger finger...
in a shootout between his cohorts and police at Rasulpur village in Sarail upazila of the district early yesterday.

The dear departed was Abdus Sattar, 32, a resident of Rasulpur-Rifiujipara village of the upazila.

Officer-in-charge of Sarail Police Station Rupok Kumar Saha said police tossed in the slammer
Drop the heater, Studs, or you're hist'try!
Sattar from his house in Rifiujipara village on Monday evening.

Based on his information, a team of police along with Sattar conducted a drive in Rasulpur graveyard area to recover arms at about 1.15 am.
Was the graveyard next to a banana grove?
Spider senses tingling at the proximity of the law enforcers, associates of Sattar shot up them. In retaliation, the law enforcers also opened fire leading to a shootout for sometimes.
It took just long enough for those two bullets, one each behind each ear for thoroughness. Longer would have been wasteful.
Sattar was caught in line of the fire and was struck down in his prime while his associates managed to flee the scene.
... as though they had never been...

Did Sattar make it as far as the Dhaka Medical Center Trauma Unit door or did he go straight to Dr. Quincy?
Three coppers including a sub inspector were also injured during the shootout.
Injuries covered at the top of the story, and all have recovered by now.
Sattar was wanted in twelve systems eight cases including for robbery, the OC added.
And so, dear Reader, a good time was had by all, excepting the former miscreant, of course.

#1  Late night drive, disappearing cohorts, dead body. Just a shutter gun short of being a old fashioned "crossfire".
