Twenty rifles and 600 bullets were looted from the store of the state owned mill at Khalishpur last month. Islam and Moyeen, allegedly belonging to Purba Banglar Communist (PBCP), were arrested after a case was filed with Khalishpur thana.

The one-man probe body comprising AC (Force) Anisur Rahman formed to probe the escape of the outlaws submitted its report on Thursday.

Anisur Rahman could not be reached over phone despite repeated attempts.
