Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) members detained a fake Rab man from a hotel in the city on Sunday afternoon. The arrestee was identified as Ahsan Ullah Hasan, 43, of Shamserpur Purbopara village in Laksam upazila of Comilla district. Acting on secret information, a team of Rab-9 raided the hotel of one Babul Mia at about 3:00pm and caught Hasan red-handed while he and his accomplice were taking money from a man in the name of selling old cars of Rab. Sensing presence of the elite force, Hasan's accomplice Ankur Das managed to flee but Hasan was held from the spot.
