Home boss not aware

State Minister for Home Asaduzzaman Khan yesterday said he knew nothing about the reported arrest of an agent of Pakistan's intelligence agency Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) by India's RAW in Dhaka.
“I know nothing yet about it. I read it in the newspapers. I'm looking into the matter,” he told reporters at the Secretariat, reported UNB.
Citing a Tuesday report of The Times of India, the Bangla daily Prothom Alo reported Wednesday that Ziaur Rahman alias Waqas, an operative of banned militant outfit Indian Mujaheedin, was caught at Dhaka airport and then "spirited away" to India by Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), India's intelligence agency.
According to the Indian daily's report that was entirely based on "sources in the security establishment" and that did not mention the day of Waqas's apprehension, the operative was spotted at the airport by a RAW staffer "who swiftly used his smart phone to photograph one of India's biggest tormentors and relayed it to his superiors".
The Times of India report says, "RAW officers were thrilled when they saw that the six-feet [sic] man being held at Dhaka airport was their elusive quarry. What followed was an intense spy game in which Indian agents managed to spirit him away to India without leaving footprints.

"How they managed to get him out of the airport and then to India remains unclear."
Asked whether RAW is authorised to make such an arrest in Bangladesh, Asaduzzaman said, “We've a prisoner exchange treaty with India but they've no authority to do this.”
Speaking on the Jubo League leader Riazul Haque Khan Milky killing case, the minister called "realistic" the charge-sheet filed by the Rapid Action Battalion in this connection.
About bringing back BNP Senior Vice Chairman Tarique Rahman, he said, “It fully depends on Tarique Rahman whether he will return or not. Legal action will be taken against him when he will return, but the government will take any steps to bring him back.”
He also said Rab was investigating the murder of the journalist couple Sagar-Runi when asked about the probe's progress. “Right information will be known at the right time,” he added.
