A drug dealer and mugger named Md. Rubel was arrested in Chattogram’s Halishahar area six hours after he jumped into a muddy pond to escape police. The incident occurred on Friday afternoon when police attempted to arrest him in the Bashundhara residential area. Rubel, who was stuck in the mud up to his neck, threatened to harm himself and police officers with a machete that his wife secretly handed to him. After several hours of standoff, police in plain clothes managed to capture him when he tried to climb out of the mud.
According to Halishahar Police Station Officer-in-Charge Kazi Muhammad Sultan Ahsan Uddin, Rubel is the leader of a local mugging gang and faces 14 criminal cases including theft, robbery, and assault. He was sent to court on Saturday, which ordered his detention. Local sources said the fire service team also arrived at the scene but could not approach due to Rubel’s threats.
The arrest ended a tense six-hour operation that drew attention in the area and highlighted ongoing police efforts against organized crime in Chattogram.
