Rapid Action Battalion has discovered another safe and a gun allegedly belonging to a Gendaria Awami League leader Enamul Haque Enu’s employee.
The elite police unit discovered the fourth safe stashed with cash at Dhaka’s Narinda on Tuesday (Sept 24) after seizing cash and gold worth millions from three safes at Enu’s Gendaria home.
RAB-3 chief Shafiullah Bulbul said they found that Enu’s bodyguar Pavel left the ‘vault’ and a gun with ammunition at the home of his employee Abul Kalam.
“The vault was opened in the presence of a magistrate and large amount cash was discovered,” he added.
Earlier on Tuesday, RAB seized a large amount of gold and cash in three safes at the residences of Enamul Haque Enu, a vice president of the ruling party’s Gendaria Thana unit and Rupon Bhuiyan, the joint general secretary of the same unit.
Enamul and Rupon lived in two flats at the building at Old Dhaka’s Baniyanagar area from where police seized Tk 11 million in cash, 8.5 kilograms of gold jewelleries and five firearms.
“Awami League leader Enamul is one of the partners of Wanderers’ Club. His proceedings [from the gambling facilities] were converted into gold and stored in vaults,” RAB-3 chief Bulbul had told the media.
The RAB-3 chief added that according to intelligence inputs, cash and gold belonging to the two leaders have been stored in five locations.
