Two alleged drug peddler have been killed in Feni in what the RAB describe as a shootout.
The victims have been identified as Md Mamun Morshed, 25 and Al Amin.
The incident was reported from district’s Sadar upazila around 4am on Monday, police said.
RAB 7 captain Fahim Jamil said, “Mamun and Al Amin were trying to escape with their motorcycle when they noticed a RAB checkpost in Upazila’s Dhaka-Chittagong highway area. The elite force members chased them while they opened fire and RAB has to fire back in self-defence which triggered the shootout.”
One foreign made pistol, 5 bullets and 24,700 yaba tablets were seized after searching the motorcycle.
The bodies have been sent to Feni Sadar Hospital for autopsy, the elite force official added.
