RAB DG to be grilled

DHAKA: Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) Director General (DG) Mokhlesur Rahman will also be quizzed in connection with the gruesome Narayanganj seven-murder.

Sources said the special administrative investigation committee, formed following the court order, will quiz him on Monday.

The probe committee member secretary and also an additional secretary of public administration ministry Abul Kashem Mohiuddin said the RAB DG has been asked to be present at the secretariat at 2:30pm on that day.

“The RAB chief will be quizzed as some of the force members have been accused in this much-talked about abduction and killing incident,” he said.

However, the committee has already quizzed about 400 people following the kidnap and murder of seven persons including Narayanganj City Corporation panel mayor Nazrul Islam and senior lawyer Chandan Kumar Sarkar.

Their bodies were recovered from the river Shitalakkhya after three days from abduction on April 27.

Later, the higher administrative investigation team was formed as per the order of the court on May 7.

Some of the RAB members have been accused in this case.

Nevertheless, the RAB DG on past week claimed that their headquarters were not aware about the murder of the seven people in Narayanganj beforehand, in a text message sent to the media.

“The RAB headquarters do not want acquittal of any of its personnel involved in criminal activities,” the text message read.
