My son had gone missing 3 weeks ago

One of the six “suicide attackers” arrested on Tuesday night by Rab had gone missing from his mess in the capital's Mirpur three weeks ago, claimed his father.

Nayan Hossain, 21, hailing from Tebila village in Pabna, was a student of medical assistant (MATS) in the capital.

His father Mojahar Ali told our Pabna correspondent that Nayan had been living in the capital's Shewrapara and could not be communicated for days after he went back to Dhaka from his Eid vacation in Pabna.

Mojarar also filed a general diary on July 24.

He claimed Nayan is suffering from extreme hearing problem and was not involved in militant activities.

Rab on Wednesday said the alleged militants were planning to carry out subversive activities.

Mufti Mahmud Khan, Rab's legal and media director, said family members in many cases remain unaware. “We arrested them along with evidences,” he said.
