Bangladeshi criminals in Kolkata trying for residences in Europe
Four most wanted criminals of Bangladesh who had so long been hiding in the safe haven to the Indian state of West Bengal are now trying to collect permanent residence in the European countries with different names, informed sources said.
The four suspected criminals are Shahadat Hossain, Tanvirul Islam Joy, Subrata Bain and Dipu. They are now reportedly hiding in Kolkata and its surrounding areas. They used different names and addresses in India. They are trying to collect permanent residence in the European countries, particularly France, to avoid arrest and deportation from India to Bangladesh.
The sources said the four suspected criminals had two passports- one of India and the other of Bangladesh. The Indian law enforcement agencies are also reportedly helping the criminals for having the permanent residence in the European countries, they added.
The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) police of Bangladesh wrote letters to the West Bengal CID police and the Delhi CID police asking them to hand over the terrorists to Bangladesh, the sources said.
More than 400 listed terrorists, including Shahadat Hossain, Tanvirul Islam Joy, Subrata Bain and Dipu, reportedly have taken shelter in the safe haven in different parts of West Bengal. At present they are fearing deportation after signing of the extradition treaty between Bangladesh and India after the visit of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to India in January.
Reliable sources said that a number of Bangladeshi criminals had already left Kolkata and have taken shelter in Nepal and in the India-China border areas while some others in Dubai in the last one-year.
Dipu and Khondokar Tanvirul Islam Joy are the convicts of the Awami League leader Ahsanullah Master murder case.The Kolkata CID police arrested the most wanted terrorist Joy from his luxurious flat in North Kolkata on May 4 last year. He was later released on bail.
Two passports- one of India and the other of Bangladesh- were recovered from his flat.
Joy was known as Tarek Rana in Kolkata. He had been running a travel agency business there for the last five years. The cost of the flat that was bought by Joy is Tk 2.5 crore.
The sources said that Subrata Bain - one of the 23 most wanted criminals for whose arrest the government announced a bounty in 2001 - was arrested by Kolkata police in 2008 and was released after serving several months in jail.
The sources said that the recent movement of criminals started when the Kolkata police deported some wanted criminals to Bangladesh in late 2008.The criminals who have been deported so far to Bangladesh included Sanjidul Islam Imon, Ishaq, Selim alias Lambu Selim, Ibrahim and Habibur Rahman Taj.
Another wanted criminal Shahazada was also deported from India in late March. He was taken into the police custody in Dhaka.The Bangladesh police also reportedly deported some of the India's most wanted criminals.
Intelligence sources in Dhaka said that the Indian police recently proposed to deport 26 Bangladeshi criminals in exchange for one of the most wanted Indian criminals, Abdur Rauf alias Daud Merchant, who was detained by the DB police in Brahmanbaria last year.
