Hadisur Rahman Sagar was detained early Thursday from the northern district of Bogra along with Akram Hossain Niloy. Bangladesh was rocked by an unprecedented attack on an upscale cafe in Dhaka’s Gulshan on the night of Jul 1, 2016. The manhunt for Sagar that put a brake on the investigation ended with Thursday’s raid in Bogra’s Shibganj Upazila. The raid at the Upazila’s Kichack was conducted on a tip-off, said Bogra police’s Additional Superintendent Arifur Rahman Mandal. Describing Sagar and Niloy as ‘high-profile’ terrorists, he told the media that they sent them to Dhaka after informing the police’s counterterrorism unit.
