A team from RAB-14 recovered a homemade pistol during a late-night operation in Purbadhala upazila of Netrokona district. The raid took place around 1:10 a.m. on Thursday in the Manushura area of Jaria Union, following intelligence that several arms traders were present for illegal arms trading. No arrests were made during the operation.

According to RAB-14 sources, the suspects attempted to flee upon sensing the presence of law enforcement. In their haste, they left behind a red market bag at the scene. RAB members later recovered the bag and, in the presence of witnesses, found a locally made pistol inside. The weapon was seized, and legal procedures were initiated.

RAB stated that efforts are ongoing to identify and apprehend the suspects who escaped. The recovered firearm has been handed over to Purbadhala Police Station for further legal action.
