Police in Fulbaria upazila of Mymensingh seized a tanker lorry carrying 2,200 liters of fuel allegedly being sold illegally. The operation took place early Wednesday, April 29, at Shibganj Hatkhali Bazar in Putijana Union following a tip-off. Three individuals, including the fuel buyer, the driver, and his assistant, were arrested. They were later presented before court on Thursday, where police sought seven-day remand for each, and the judge ordered them sent to jail pending a hearing.
According to police, the driver and assistant admitted during preliminary questioning that they were supposed to deliver the fuel from Sirajganj to a filling station in Muktagacha but instead sold it illegally to a local man named Sohel Mia. A supply slip mentioning “Seven Star Filling Station” was recovered, though it lacked a specific address. Authorities are investigating whether the station is linked to the incident.
Local sources said Sohel Mia legally holds an NOC for retail fuel sales but is accused of nighttime illegal trading. Police have filed a case and are continuing efforts to identify others involved.
