An overseas telephone call was made to the Rapid Action Battalion on Friday afternoon asking it to release the large shipment of the banned club-drug Yaba tablets seized from Asadganj in Chittagong.
Acting commander of RAB-7 Maj Ziaul Ahsan Sarwar told that the call was made from an 'unknown' number on the mobile phone of Cox Bazar camp unit commander of RAB-7 Captain Rashid around 4pm.
"The person on the other side asked him to release the Yaba shipment that was seized in the morning. He then hung up the phone," he added.
Maj Sarwar said after they were informed of the matter, they tried to contact the phone number, but found it switched off.
"The (phone) number is not from any of the mobile phone operators of the country. We're looking into issue," the RAB official said.
RAB-1 and RAB-7 in a joint drive seized 270,000 banned Yaba tablets and arrested drug peddler Abdur Rashid along with his three accomplices at Asadganj in Chittagong.
RAB personnel claim that it is so far the largest Yaba seizure. The estimated value of the banned drugs is around Tk 90 million.
