Outlaw arrested

Our Correspondent, Kushtia
Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) on Saturday night arrested an Imam turned outlaw from Badiapara in Gangni upazila in Meherpur and recovered two bombs from him. Arrestee Tofazzol, 50, is son of late Amir Ali of Dhankhola in Gangni upazila. He was a part-time Imam at a local mosque. Rab said in the guise of Imam, Tofazzol worked for outlawed Janajuddho, a faction of Purbo Banglar Communist Party (PBCP-ML). A team from Rab-6 intercepted Tofazzol at Badiapara village at about 7:30 pm, on receiving information that he was carrying bombs. Tofazzol tried to flee by his bicycle but Rab men arrested him and recovered two bombs searching his handbag.
