No headway in BD probe into arms haul

By Our Correspondent


DHAKA, April 13: A high-power probe body, headed by Bangladesh's home secretary, is yet to make any headway in the investigation into the country's largest ever arms haul in Chittagong on April 2. Besides , no deadline has been fixed for the probe body to submit the investigation report.

This was stated at a press conference held by Home Secretary Omar Farrok on Tuesday afternoon. Notably, the final count of the deadly cargo, detected and recovered by the Chittagong police and coast guard, on Aril 2, produces the list of as many as 4,930 different types of sophisticated firearms, 27,020 hand grenades, 840 rockets, 300 accessories of rocket launchers, 2,000 grenade launching tubes, 6,392 magazines and 1,140,520 rounds of ammunition.
