Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) has arrested a youth named Rumon, 27, in connection with the murder of a tea stall owner and a staff member in Gulshan.
Rafiqul Islam, 62, the owner and Sabbir, 15, the staff member, were killed on 26 September, said Lt Col Md Munim Ferdous, RAB’s director of the Legal and Media Wing, during a press briefing at its media centre.
He added that Rumon was arrested from Chattogram yesterday (1 October) during a joint drive by RAB-1 and RAB-7.
“Primary investigation suggests that Rumon took part in the killing mission in person,” he added.
