Faridpur RAB camp’s ASP Aminur Rahman said the accused, Habibur Rahman aka ‘Sumon’, had been held from his home late Saturday night.

ASP Aminur told reporters 25 petrol bombs were found hidden under his bed during a raid on ‘Sumon’s home.

A mobile phone and three SIM cards have also been recovered.

‘Sumon’ had brought the explosives from Jessore and stored them for later use to spread violence during the BNP-led alliance’s nationwide blockade and shutdowns, said ASP Aminur.
