2019-05-30 |
Four people accused of poaching threatened Bengal tigers were shot dead by Bangladesh police on Wednesday during a gunfight in a mangrove forest, officials said. Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) police challenged armed men on a boat in the Sundarbans, the world's largest mangrove forest, spokesman Mizanur Rahman said. The poachers opened fire sparking the battle, Rahman told AFP. Four bodies, guns and ammunition were found on the boat. RAB denied the use of the oft-maligned but never underestimated stutter gun. |

#4 At least they recovered actual 'ammunition' and not just the random 'round of bullet'. The Bangla economy must be improving if even common miscreants can afford a box of ammo. |
