 MEHERPUR, Apr 19: A regional leader of an outlawed party was killed in a shootout between his cohorts and RAB members in Gangni upazila Wednesday morning, reports UNB.
| An outlawed party: care to guess its political philosophy? |
RAB sources said they arrested Zohurul Haque alias Titu, 27, a second-in-commander of Purba Banglar Communist Party (Communist Juddha) from Minapara village in Gangni upazila Tuesday evening.
| No, I don't know where that is. |
After spirited but painful interrogation, RAB members went out with Titu for recovering hidden firearms.
"Hokay, Titu, let's go for a walk."
"But it's dark outside!"
"That don't bother us, and it ain't gonna bother you for too long." |
But when they reached at the middle of Chandamari and Ber villages at about 4.30am, ...
| A little late, but maybe they had some other 'business' on the way ... |
... his cohorts opened fire on the elite force forcing them to fire back.
| "Oh lawsy, they got Titu! We gotta open fire!" |
"Titu was caught in the crossfire while trying to flee and died on the spot," RAB sources said.
| Which saved the trip to the Chittagong University Medical School Emergency Room, since the traffic at that time of the morning is horrible ... |
His body was sent to the Sadar Hospital morgue for autopsy.
| Just to confirm that Titu died of two gunshot wounds to the back of the head. |
RAB also recovered a homemade gun and three cartridges from the scene.
| All of which are safely back in the RAB display case at HQ ... |
Titu, son of Minarul Islam of Bamanagar in Alamdanga upazila of Chuadanga district, was accused on twelve systems in a number of cases including murders. |
