Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) yesterday arrested a union parishad member of Sajek in Khagrachhari and seized two remote controlled bombs and a China-made rifle at his house. Rab 7 of Chittagong went to the house, about 100 kilometres away from Khagrachhari town, of Althanga Pankhoa in the guise of arms traders and arrested him.
Rab 7 troops, led by Lieutenant Colonel Hasinur Rahman, took Althanga to Chittagong and they are quizzing him to learn more about his involvement with smuggling. | Next comes the 2AM road trip to pick up his 'arms cache' | The arrestee had been reportedly smuggling and selling arms to the former guerillas of the Shanti Bahini. | If they're buying arms, I'd say they aren't 'former' guerillas |
