PBCP threatens to avenge killing of party men

All police stations and outposts in four south-western districts have been put on alert following violence and threat by outlawed Purbo Banglar Communist Party (PBCP-ML) in Chuadanga on Monday night.
The outlaws distributed leaflets, blasted bombs and fired a number of blank shots in Chuadanga town, creating panic among locals.
Informed that the outlaws blasted several bombs at Daulatdia near Bangaz Biscuit Factory at about 9:00pm, several police teams led by Additional Police Superintendent Moazzem Hossain rushed to the spot and seized a bundle of leaflets and bomb splinters.
In the leaflets, the outfit warned of taking revenge of the killing of leaders and activists including PBCP general secretary Jamal Uddin alias Robi alias Nuruzzaman Sumon.
They blamed 'conspiracy' of a group of Awami League (AL) leaders in the district for killing several of their leaders and activists in the district.
Terming 'crossfire' killing as a 'cold blooded murder', the outfit leaders warned law enforcement agencies of 'anything anytime'.
According to police, a group of PBCP-ML men are trying to get reorganised in Jhenidah, Chuadanga, Meherpur and Kushtia districts under the leadership of Arif, a most wanted outlaw.
Hailing from village Akundubaria in Chuadanga Sadar upazila, Arif fled the area soon after the killing of PBCP top leader Jamal on December 3, 2009.
Police has continued drive to arrest the PBCP cadres, Chuadanga Superintendent of Police Abdul Baten said.
Police recovered the body of Shahin alias Mukti, 43, a leader of outlawed Gono Mukti Fouz from Saibaria Beel in Mirpur upazila of Kushtia on Tuesday.
Shahin, hailing from Harulia village in Sadar upazila, was killed allegedly by activists of Biplobi Communist Party on Monday night.
Shahin was accused in 25 cases, including 18 for abduction, in Kushtia, Meherpur, Chuadanga and Jhenidah police stations, police said.
