The businessman after being found alive in
Comilla on Monday, six days after he had gone missing, said he was kidnapped
from Chittagong by a group of armed men in a black microbus.
Mridul,
before his abduction, had filed a case against RAB Major Rakibul Amin, a RAB
source and his own driver for looting 80 Bhori (933g) of gold.
Police are
refusing to let reporters near the injured businessman after he was brought from
Comilla and admitted to a hospital in Chittagong on Monday.
Mridul,
however, told journalists in Comilla that his captors, who he said used to beat
him badly, did not demand ransom.
Mridul’s brother Shimul Chowdhury
speaking to reporters in Chittagong alluded to the case against the elite force
saying, “We have past rivalry with RAB. But we don’t know if they are involved
in this.”
“The kidnappers said they were members of RAB,” he had earlier
stated quoting witnesses after his brother’s abduction on Feb 11.He had
filed a general diary after his brother had gone missing which later became a
case of kidnap.
“It’s important to know if Mridul staged his own
abduction,” RAB Additional Director General Col Ziaul Ahsan told
bdnews24.com.
He thought it was strange that Mridul was getting his
driver to transfer 80 Bhori of gold.
Meanwhile, the CID are in charge of
investigating the case Mridul had filed before his abduction.
“RAB is
also investigating the officer in question,” said Col Zia. “We will deal with
him sternly if the probe finds him guilty.”
Jewelry traders in Chittagong
had threatened to shut businesses across the country if Mridul was not
found.
Mridul owns the Dulhan Jwellers at Chittagong’s New
Market.
