Once-jailed Yaba kingpins are making a comeback
The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has prosecuted two “top yaba traders” in Cox’s Bazar for “amassing wealth illegally.”
Rab claim to have arrested two yaba traders from Dhaka’s Mohakhali area while smuggling 22,330 pieces of the contraband pills in a private car from Cox’s Bazar.
Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) has arrested two drug traders red handed from Dhaka’s Uttara while smuggling one lakh pieces of yaba into Dhaka from Cox’s Bazar.
Bangladesh Coast Guard has seized 500,000 yaba pills and held two men from the mouth of the river Ramnabad on the Bay of Bengal in Patuakhali.
The surrender of 102 drug lords on February 16 now seems merely an eyewash as the yaba empire in Teknaf remains mostly intact with some of their family members and paid agents taking care of the illegal trade.
Yaba traders are adopting new techniques every day to bring the pills to the capital. They are now using mostly homeless children, aged between 10 and 15 years, as drug mules. They pay the children to take the risks.
Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) claims arrest of five drug traders from Dhaka’s Kadamtoli area.
