Our Correspondent, N'ganj
Two people identifying themselves as members of Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) allegedly ransacked the house of a minority family and looted Tk 7,500 at Amlapara in Narayanganj on Wednesday night. Shipra Ghosh, wife of Shibu Ghosh, submitted a written complaint in this regard to Police Super Shahabuddin Khan yesterday. In the complaint, she said the raiders also threatened to kill her husband and two sons in 'crossfire' if they do not pay Tk 60,000 by August 13. The family has been being harassed by a gang of criminals for the last few days, who are demanding the money from Shibu Ghosh, saying that his eldest son Sanjay owes the money to them. But Sanjay who left the house two and a half years ago does not keep in contact with the family. The gang raided the house on August 7 and demanded the money. On August 8 midnight, some people identifying themselves as policemen also ransacked Shibu's house. On receiving the complaint, Police Super Shahabuddin Khan has asked the detective police to investigate the incident. Officer-in-charge of DB Police Shafiqullah said the investigation is under way and that they are trying to identify the persons responsible.
