Allegations of killing two more people and dumping their bodies into rivers have been brought against the members of Rapid Action Battalion-11 in the district.
The Rab members picked up Hossain Showkat, a land property trader of Siddhirganj, and Tajul Islam, a clinic owner of Sonargaon, and murdered them before throwing their bodies into the rivers, the families of the victims said.
They came up with the allegation during a human chain formed in front of Narayanganj Deputy Commissioner’s (DC) office on Sunday noon.
With tears-soaked eyes, the victims’ families demanded capital punishment for the accused Rab members, including three sacked Rab officials — Lt Col Tareque Sayeed Mohammad, Major Arif Hossain and Lt Commander MM Rana.
Earlier on Saturday, family members of a local Awami League activist Mohammad Ismail, 42, alleged that the Rab-11 members pick up him and demanded Tk two crore for his release.
Besides, family of Nazrul Islam, one of the victims of the recent seven murders, alleged that some Rab men killed the former city panel mayor in exchange for Tk six crores from suspects including city councilor Nur Hossain.
Later, three Rab officials – Lt Col Tareque Sayeed Mohammad and Major Arif Hossain, Lt Commander MM Rana—were sent on forced retirement for their alleged involvement in the gruesome incident.
The trio are now on police remand.
