Tales from the Crossfire Gazette (Sunday edition)

2006-05-07

A suspected terrorist was killed in crossfire between police and a gang of miscreants at Tejgaon in the city in the early hours of yesterday. The deceased was identified as Waliul Islam alias Tapon (30), son of Toybur Rahman, a resident of Basabo under Sabujbagh police station. He hailed from Uthanpara under Bakshiganj thana in Jamalpur district.

I have no idea where that is.

A team of RAB-2 arrested Tapon from Chunkuthia bazar area under Keraniganj thana at around 12.30pm on Friday.

"Tapon, we don't know yet what youse done, but we're going to find out, so why don't youse come wit us, 'k?"

The RAB personnel interrogated him at its office.

At the office or in the dungeon annex?

During the interrogation he informed RAB men of whereabout of his associates.

"Ooch! Ouch! They're at the Trade Fair! Please put those pliers down!"

Following his information a team of RAB-2 along with Tapon went to the westside of International Trade Fair ground at Sher-e-Bangla Nagar at around 3.30am.

The magic moment approaches ...

Sensing danger the criminals fired upon the RAB personnel who also retaliated.

"I got a tingly sensation all over -- it must be the RAB! Open fire, boyz!"

Tapon was caught in line of fire while he tried to flee the scene and died one the spot.

"I'm gettin' out of .. [THUNK] [THUD] rosebud ..."

RAB men recovered a revolver and two rounds of bullet from the spot.

And three more in Tapon's head. The shutter gun was unavailable, must have been checked out by RAB-5.

The body was sent to the morgue of Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH) for autopsy.

"Here you go Dr. Quincy, this will be quick."

I see the old J-frame has made an appearance.

#5 EU/Brit policy is, unfortunately, suspecting someone is bad is being judgemental, even using the word 'miscreant' could get you an ASBO (Anti-Social Behavior Order) Outsourcing the problem to the RAB would be cheaper/better and the EU thinkers could smugly wash their hands of the problem. Solves Bangla's budget problems too.

#4 The failure to tackle the radicalisation of young British Muslims played a leading role in provoking the London bombings on July 7 last year, official reports are expected to say this week.
MPs and senior civil servants will claim that many Muslims growing up in Britain have too little "incentive" to turn their backs on Islamic extremism

Fascinating, junkirony ! True, of course, if incomplete -- the current culture actually encourages extremism of all sorts, rather than otherwise.

RAB " suspected" terrorist Incentive Program.

Simple, sure, and cost effective answer to any country's Islamic extremism problems.

#2 So long as he's a commie terrorist, of course. Islamic terrorists get a 'get out of jail free' card.

#1 This almost cheers me up. They have no problems calling a terrorist a terrorist in the Bangla papers.
