Five leaders of the banned Chhatra League were arrested in Cox’s Bazar while visiting the beach area. The group included presidents and general secretaries of the organization’s upazila units in Kishoreganj’s Katiadi and Pakundia. They were detained by Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) members on Tuesday evening around 7:30 p.m. near the Cox’s Bazar airport area, based on secret information. On Thursday afternoon, the detainees were taken into police custody and transferred to the relevant police station.

The arrested individuals were identified as Sheikh Samrat Alamgir, president of Katiadi Upazila Chhatra League; Md. Roni Khan Shuvo, general secretary; Habibur Rahman Rakib, joint general secretary; Samad Ullah; and Tofayel Ahmed Tuhin, general secretary of Pakundia Upazila Chhatra League. Although RAB-15 in Cox’s Bazar did not confirm the arrests, Katiadi Police Station Officer-in-Charge Mahbubur Rahman verified the detention and transfer of the five leaders.

The report did not mention the specific reasons behind the arrests or any subsequent legal actions following their transfer to Katiadi police custody.
