Arrest



Feni, Aug 9 -Detectives in a drive arrested former Feni Zila Parishad Chairman Khairul Bashar Majumdar Tapan from his residence at Shantinagar in the capital on Friday night in a case over killing protesters near Mohipal flyover during the July movement.

Tipped off, a team of DB police conducted a drive in Shantinagar area and arrested Tapan around 10 pm, said Mohamamd Shamsuzzaman, officer-in-charge of Feni Model Police Station.
