RAB has arrested Arman alias Boma Arman (42), one of the main accused in six cases including the sensational Raj murder case in the capital's Mohammadpur Geneva Camp.
He was arrested from the Geneva Camp area on Thursday (November 7) afternoon. RAB-2's media officer Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Shihab Karim confirmed this information at around 12:15 am last night.
Regarding the incident, he said that on November 1, there was a chase between two groups in Geneva Camp over the dominance of drug sales. At that time, 10 to 12 people, including pedestrian Raj, were seriously injured in a bomb thrown by the Arman alias Boma Arman group. Locals rescued Raj and took him to Shaheed Suhrawardy Medical College Hospital, where the doctor on duty declared him dead.
The cousin of Raj, who died in the incident, filed a murder case with Mohammadpur Police Station, mentioning the name of the accused.
