The detainees are Thakurgaon Court Police’s SI Helal Uddin Pramanik, 45, and Manik Ali, 25.
Members of police’s Detective Branch detained the duo at the Old Dak Bungalow on Sunday, Thakurgaon Superintendent of Police Moniruzzaman Monir said.

A drug peddler, Akimul Islam, who was arrested five days ago, said during interrogation that he bought yaba from SI Helal, according to SP Monir.
“We started monitoring SI Helal afterwards and a DB team caught him red handed at the bungalow when he and Manik entered it after a trip to Cox’s Bazar,” Monir said.
Cox’s Bazar is the main route used by yaba smugglers to bring the pills from Myanmar.
Monir said the process to start a case against SI Helal and Manik was under way.
