One suspect arrested
The three-member committee comprising Criminal Investigation Department (CID) and Detective Branch (DB) yesterday started investigation into Chowbaria five murder case taking in consideration the outlaws' motive for a revenge against crossfire killings and BNP's internal feud.
"The primary investigation has so far provided two motives--the outlaws took revenge of the killings of their party leaders in crossfire and they have links with a previously killed BNP leader," said Shahidar Rahman, officer-in-charge of Manda Police Station in Naogaon.
Purbo Banglar Communist Party outlaws slaughtered four policemen and shot dead a BNP leader at a crowded cattle market at Chowbaria of Manda upazila in Naogaon on Friday. The killers also looted the arms of the policemen.
