Rab members in separate drives in Shibganj upazila recovered three firearms and bullets and arrested three alleged illegal arms sellers Sunday night. Acting on a tip-off, a team of Rab-5 intercepted the motorcycle of Azam Khan,35, of the town at Durlovpur Bazaar and recovered one pistol, one revolver, five bullets and a magazine from his possession at about 10:00pm. In another drive, the elite force caught red-handed two others - Azahar Ali and Nazrul Islam- when they were selling a pistol at Ghorapakhia Joligram at about 11:40pm. Both the arrestees hailed from Shikhtola village under Shibganj upazila. Rab later handed them over to police. Two cases were filed under Arms Act.
