... was killed in an encounter between his accomplices and members of Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) at Purbo Shyampur in the city yesterday.

The deceased was identified as Shayel Khan alias 'Killer Pandit,' 20. Son of Abul Kalam Khan in Barisal district, Killer Pandit was a close associate of Bara Miah and main killer of Shaheen group, RAB sources said.
| Oh, a main killer. Just the kind of person the RAB wants to meet. |
"Killer Pandit was wanted on twelve systems in a number of criminal cases, including murders," a RAB official said.
| That's how he got the nickname, ya know ... |
Being informed about the gathering of some illegal arms carrying miscreants at Purbo Shyampur, ...
| shout-out to Mahmoud the Weasel ... |
... a team of RAB-10 raided the area at about 2:30am, RAB sources said.
| Just about the magic witching hour. |
Sensing the presence of RAB men, ...
| "Hark, my spider-sense is tingling!" |
... the criminals started aimless firing on the elite force, forcing them to fire back that triggered a gun-battle.
| Not a single bullet was embedded in a tree or wall so as to be recovered for ballistics. |
"At one stage of the gunfight, Killer Pandit was caught in crossfire ...
| ... feets having failed him ... |
| Being stuffed into the trunk of the RAB squad car for hours will do that.. |
... and died instantly," ...
... said an eyewitness account of RAB.
| And if you can't trust the account of an RAB eyewitness ... |
Two RAB members were also injured in the encounter, ...
| Hernia and a bruised ego ... |
... said a RAB official unwilling to disclose their names.
| But we know they were Herb and Roger. |
However, the elite force recovered a loaded pistol from the spot.
| So the crazed Killer Pandit couldn't be trusted with a shutter gun ... |
