Tuhin Sarwar: Gazippur, Bangladesh-
RAB-1 Assistant Director (Operations and Media Officer) and Assistant Police Superintendent Md. Mahfuzur Rahman confirmed the matter on Sunday, July 7. He said that last Saturday, Mitu, in the guise of fake RAB personnel, abducted and held at gunpoint three officials of Selvo Chemical Industries Limited in front of gate number 3 of the factory in the Shreepur police station area of Gazipur district. Mitu then stole 1.945 million taka intended for the workers' salaries and bonuses, and truck fares. Following the incident, the factory authorities filed a case at Shreepur police station in Gazipur.He further stated that immediately after the case was filed, a raid was conducted in the dark of night, and Mitu, a notorious female member and one of the main accused of the organized robbery gang, was arrested. Mitu, a reliable member of the robbery gang, was previously acquainted with another arrested accused, Md. Rubel Islam, through whom she became involved in the robbery activities. Disguised as a customer, she monitored inside the bank who was withdrawing large amounts of money and identified easy targets.
In this manner, Mitu marked the targets inside the bank and confirmed the targets by calling or messaging other members of the gang. Once the target exited the bank with the money, Mitu followed them outside and signaled the lookout man about the target. Cunningly, Mitu paid close attention to the target's conversations and tried to understand their route plan. Her main task was to mark the targets for the other members of the robbery gang and provide as much information as possible about the targets.
It is worth mentioning that on June 12, in another operation, RAB-1 had arrested five people, including the mastermind of this organized robbery gang. Mitu has been involved in the activities of this organized robbery gang for a long time. During the initial interrogation, she admitted her involvement in the robbery and her association with the organized robbery gang. The process of handing over Mitu to the police station is underway
