The arrest was made after detained NSI Field Officer Akbar Hossain Khan in a confessional statement before a magistrate on April 2 said that he hired seven trucks and a crane from Greenways, a transport agency, for carrying the arms and ammunition on orders of Sahab Uddin.

The Government has announced zero tolerance against militancy, terrorism and any attempt to disrupt the law and order situation as a 17-member National Committee on Militancy Resistance and Prevention held a meeting at the Home Ministry on May 12, reports Daily Star.

The former BDR head Lieutenant General (Retd), M. Atiqur Rahman, had said that the missing weapons, mainly grenades, could reach the hands of ULFA militants and other criminals and could even be smuggled into neighbouring countries like India. Regarding this matter, the Boarder Security Force (BSF) Inspector General (IG) (Assam and Meghalaya Frontier) of India, Prithvi Raj, said, "Its a natural corollary. They (BDR mutineers) have wiped out their leadership. They are criminals of the worst kind. ULFA cadres are also criminals. There is a likelihood that the BDR mutineers might be holed up in the ULFA camps." He had received inputs in this regard, the BSF IG admitted. He, however, said that intelligence inputs also suggested that the ULFA has shifted some of its traditional camps to Myanmar, Bhutan and Nepal after the Awami League (AL) Government came to power in Bangladesh, added Telegraph. “The new Government in Bangladesh favours anti-terror initiatives and measures. The atmosphere is favourable for India,” he said. The BSF was on alert mode since the BDR mutiny and was prepared to foil any intrusion attempt by militants from across the border, Prithvi Raj added.

The national probe committee on Bangladesh Riffles (BDR) mutiny did not find any militant, political or foreign links to the carnage at Pilkhana headquarters, reports Daily Star. "BDR jawans committed the murders on their own. Our investigation did not find any involvement of outsiders--political leaders, militants or foreign forces," an unnamed member of the Government probe body told in the evening of May 21. According to the 309-page inquiry report submitted to Home Minister Sahara Khatunon on May 21, the BDR rank and file already had grievances pent up for years. It also said the mutiny was continuation of the revolts in 1973 and 1991 over leadership in the border force, added the probe body member. Meanwhile, some unidentified sources close to the committee said that several BDR personnel had claimed the mutiny was part of their movement against discrimination by the Army officers deputed to BDR. In its report, the committee recommends that those responsible be tried under the military act for a speedy trial. It also suggests that BDR personnel should not be engaged in programmes like 'Operation Dal-Bhat', which was introduced to contain price hike of essentials during the caretaker Government rule. It also advised a further inquiry into the claims of foreign links.
