Basics
The five fugitives are:
1. Col (dismissed) Khandaker Abdur Rashid,
2. Lt Col (relieved) Shariful Haque Dalim,
3. Maj (retd) Noor Chowdhury,
4. Maj (retd) Rashed Chowdhury, and
5. Risaldar Moslehuddin Khan.
Of the five absconders, according to officials concerned, the government knows the whereabouts of two fugitives for certain:
1. Rashed Chowdhury in the United States, and
2. Noor Chowdhury in Canada.
But the whereabouts of Khandaker Abdur Rashid, Shariful Haque Dalim, and Moslehuddin Khan is yet to be determined.
The whereabouts of Khandaker Abdur Rashid, Shariful Haque Dalim, and Risaldar Moslem Uddin still remain unknown.
However, some intelligence sources claimed that Dalim and Rashid are in Pakistan or Libya. Indian media reported earlier that Risaldar Moslem Uddin is absconding in this neighbouring country.
NCB officials said they sent an email to their Indian counterpart seeking information on Moslem Uddin last year, but no responses were made, not even an unofficial one.
Bangladesh has only a convict or criminal exchange treaty with Thailand and India and that is why we are relying onbringing back those convicts from the US, Canada, or other countries through mutual and legal assistance requests.
