Jonny’s Murder in Custody: Fugitive convict ‘selling drugs’ in Pallabi
Ishtiaque Ahmed Jonny
Five months have passed since the delivery of the verdict in the case filed over the murder of Ishtiaque Hossain Jonny in police custody, but two convicts are still eluding arrest.
Much to the disappointment of the victim s family, Russell, one of the two absconding convicts, is running drug business in Rahmat Camp area of the capital s Pallabi which is less than half a kilometre away from the victim s house, said locals.
Speaking on condition of anonymity, a local youth said Russell visits the area once in every two to three weeks with drugs in a motorcycle and leaves after collecting the money earned by his men from sales of yaba pills and other drugs.
