The Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) will continue its drive to recover illegal arms across the country ahead of the upcoming 12th general elections.
“The elite force has been working to bring the identified criminals to justice. It will continue its drive in the future,” Commander Khandaker Al Moin, Director of the Legal and Media Wing at RAB, told reporters at its Karwan Bazar media centre yesterday.
He said since the beginning of blockage of this year, the RAB provided escorts for 17,000 passen-gers, goods- and fuel-carrying vehicles and over 200 convoys. “We are doing so to maintain the chain of the economy,” he added.
Replying to a question, Al Moin said as per the Article 126 of the Constitution, all executive divi-sions will cooperate with the Election Commission (EC) in holding the polls. RAB has been im-plementing various instructions issues by the EC, he said.
