| 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 ..." |
