Six muggers, in guise of passengers, arrested in Ctg


They wait on the roads with microbus for passengers. Several of them remain seated inside the vehicle. The driver starts the vehicle when passengers get on board the microbus.

But, their real faces come out after the vehicle crosses some distances. Then they took away everything from passengers and throw them out of the moving microbus. If any passenger tries to obstruct them, they start beating him mercilessly. In some cases, they become so brutal that they don't hesitate to take the life of passenger.
Police arrested six such muggers who were waiting with a microbus in guise of passengers.

They were arrested during a joint drive by the City Detective Branch of police and thana police in Chattogram on Wednesday night.

The arrested were Md Shah Alam Akon, 32, Abul Kalam, 47, Md Zakir Hossain Sayeed, 36, Md Al Amin, 29, Mizanur Rahman, 53 and Nahidul Islam alias Harun, 31.

It was told at a press conference held on early Thursday afternoon that the gang of muggers picked  one Hossain Master, an expatriate, up on board their microbus from Olongkar. The muggers took Tk 10,000 and a mobile phone from Hossain Master. After roaming at here and there, he was finally thrown on the road from the running microbus at Betiara area of Chouddagram in Comilla.

Critically injured Hossain Master was rushed to a hospital by locals where he died after a day.

Later, his family filed a case with Pahartali Police Station in Chattogram.

When the DB of police launched an investigation into the case, they learnt about the gang of muggers.

The Chattogram Metropolitan Police (CMP)'s additional commissioner (Crime) Md Shamsul Alam said the gang members came to Chattogram from Barishal via Dhaka. They mugged everything from passengers on their way to the port city.
