Police suspect there are more firearms hidden here
A large cache of sophisticated firearms and ammunition has been recovered from Narayanganj’s Rupganj upazila.
“Two rocket launchers, 63 M16 assault rifles and LMGs (light machine guns), 26 magazines and huge hand grenades have so far been recovered from Gutibo area early Friday,” Detective Branch of police’s Sub-Inspector Mofizul Islam said.
He said that they had searched the area for weapons based on information given by one Sharif Miah.
“Police found an LMG from Sharif’s house on Thursday but he managed to escape,” the SI said. Sharif was apprehended within hours from Chasara.
“He gave us information about this weapons cache,” the DB officer added.
Rupganj police’s Officer-in-Charge Islam Hossain said that such firearms were “usually used by Indian separatist outfit Ulfa and militant group JMB.”
“The drive is still going on,” he said. “We suspect there are more firearms hidden here.”
A fire service team reached the spot and they would start drive for unearthing more arms.
