A soon as I read the report, the following images appeared in my mind's screen: RAB seems to have immense similarity with that of the Rakhi Bahini of the first Awami League government. Incidentally, the abbreviated nomenclature RAB could also pass for Rakhi Bahini.

The RAB operations seem to have a similarity with operation Clean Heart carried out earlier by the government.

Pakistan who carried out a genocide in the then East Pakistan seem to have learnt some lessons from that experience, but not Bangladesh. Today the common people of the country are as much scared of the police and members of the various law enforcing agencies as they were with the very sight of the militia or the occupation forces in the then East Pakistan.
