The dead man has been identified as 30-year-old Khorshed Alam. A team of detectives occupied the Joarianala Rubber Bagan area after being notified about the arrival of a consignment of yaba tablets there, according to OC Barua. “The men did not listen and instead opened fire on the police, forcing the law enforcers to retaliate. Police rushed the wounded man to Cox’s Bazar Sadar Hospital where the on-duty doctor declared him dead. The law enforcers also recovered 30,000 yaba tablets, a gun and a motorbike from the spot, said Barua, adding the body has been sent to Cox’s Bazar Sadar Hospital morgue for autopsy.
