A team of five to six persons identifying themselves as detectives picked up Mamun from the factory around 1:30am on October 6 and whisked him away in a microbus, Mahmudul Hasan, elder brother of the youth, told The Daily Star.

"They first looked for one Abdullah but later picked up my brother," he said quoting the factory employees.

The factory authorities informed the family three days after the incident. Then, the family filed a general diary with Khilgaon Police Station on October 11 in this regard.

"If he has done any crime, take legal action as per the law… We want his safe return," Mahmudul appealed.

Nazmul Huda, a sub-inspector of Khilgaon Police Station who is investigating the GD, said they are yet to track down Mamun.

The SI said they contacted at DB office but came to know that they did not picked him up.
