FBI, Yard seek Chittagong arms haul probe

15 February 2005: FBI, Scotland Yard, and Interpol agents called to
investigate bomb attacks that narrowly missed the Bangladesh
opposition leader, Sheikh Hasina Wajed, and the British high
commissioner, Anwar Chowdhury, during a visit to Sylhet, but killed
the former finance minister, Shah A.M.S.Kibria, have demanded
reopening the Chittagong arms haul case.

Three separate probe panels, investigating teams and intelligence
bureaus have so far "failed" to uncover the source, destination and
couriers of Bangladesh's biggest arms haul in years, in a jetty of the
Karnaphuli River in Chittagong, on 2 April 2004, in which nearly
two-thousand AK series assault rifles, sub-machine carbines, Chinese
rifles, rocket launchers, besides 27,000 hand grenades and nearly two
lakh ammunition were recovered.

Fourteen persons, mainly porters, boatmen, and truck drivers, were
arrested, and later, half of them were released, but the inquiries
have made no headway, and now, the Khalida Zia regime has come under
enormous pressure from foreign governments and agencies to launch a
fullscale investigation of the Chittagong arms haul.

The foreign governments and agents believe militants from India
provided safe sanctuaries in Bangladesh could be behind the
assassination attempts, and India which was denied a investigative
role in the Chittagong arms haul has always maintained that the
weapons were consigned to ULFA and other North-East terrorist groups.

The FBI has come in twice, first to investigate the attack on Hasina
in August 2004, and a second time now to probe the Kibria killing, and
Scotland Yard has been inquiring into the grenade attack on Chowdhury.
