The Bangladesh Coast Guard seized 1,400 liters of stolen diesel during an operation in Patenga, Chattogram, on June 1, 2026. The fuel, valued at approximately 161,000 taka, was allegedly being transported for illegal sale. Two engine-powered wooden boats used to carry the fuel were also confiscated. The operation was conducted by a special team from the Coast Guard’s Patenga outpost based on secret intelligence.
According to a press release from the Coast Guard’s East Zone, the smugglers fled the scene upon realizing the presence of the law enforcement team, and no arrests were made. Legal procedures regarding the seized fuel and boats are currently underway.
The Coast Guard’s East Zone media officer stated that similar operations will continue in the region to curb smuggling and other illegal activities.
