Suspected drug trader killed in ‘gunfight’
An alleged drug trader was killed in a 'shootout' with the members of Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) at Chamtia Joyontipur area of Lalpur upazila of Natore early Tuesday.
The deceased was identified as Meher Ali, an accused in 14 cases including drug and murder, RAB officials said.
A patrol team of RAB challenged a gathering over suspicion.
When the team approached towards the gathering, the miscreants opened fire on them forcing the elite force members to fire back that triggered a gunfight, leaving Meher Ali dead on the spot while others managed to flee the scene.
RAB also recovered arms and drugs from the spot.
