Top terror snatched from police custody in Gazipur; 3 officers injured
 Bangla Press Desk: A group of miscreants attacked law enforcement officers and abducted a detained terrorist suspect, Md. Sumon Mia, from police custody in Sreepur upazila of Gazipur on Thursday night. The incident occurred around 8pm near the Sreepur-Tengra road intersection. Three police personnel — ASI Shahidul Islam, ASI Emdad, and SI Nazmul Islam — were injured in the attack, police said. Md. Sumon Mia, son of Moslem Uddin from Pathantek village in Barmi union, is accused with multiple cases filed against him under the Arms Act across different police stations in the district.
According to ASI Shahidul Islam, a joint team from the district Detective Branch (DB) and local police arrested Sumon from the Nandia Sangun area of Kawraid union. However, as the officers were transporting him in a vehicle, the team was ambushed by miscreants shortly after crossing Tengra Mor. The attackers eventually overpowered the police at the Sreepur-Tengra intersection and managed to free the accused after physically assaulting the officers. Muhammad Abdul Barik, officer-in-charge (OC) of Sreepur Police Station, said additional police reinforcements were deployed to the area following the abduction.
"Multiple attacks took place, and ultimately the accused was forcibly taken. Several officers were injured in the process. Sumon Mia is a top-listed criminal with several arms-related cases," the OC added. An operation is currently underway to trace the abducted suspect and identify those involved in the assault.
