‘Top drug dealer’ Chua Selim arrested

Two months after the detention of "top drug dealer" Bhuiyan Sohel alias Bunia Sohel at Geneva Camp in Dhaka's Mohammadpur, his rival Selim Ashrafi alias Chua Selim has also been arrested.

He was detained from outside the capital's Labaid Hospital on Thursday, said Rapid Action Battalion-2 Assistant Director ASP Khan Asif Topu.

The elite force official said, "Chua Selim was hospitalised and arrested following his release by a doctor. He is accused in 35 cases, including two murder cases."
Selim was covertly receiving medical treatment after being shot by his rivals at the Geneva Camp on Sept 4. He was arrested four months after the incident.

The power struggle over the drug trade at the Geneva Camp - worth billions - has been ongoing for a long time. However, clashes between the two sides escalated into constant conflict amid the unrest surrounding the July uprising.
