RAJSHAHI, June 8, 2026 (BSS) - The Detective Branch (DB) of the Rajshahi Metropolitan Police (RMP) has solved a sensational cash robbery case involving money belonging to a dairy farm in the Belpukur Police Station area of Rajshahi city. 

Two suspects, including the alleged mastermind, have been arrested. Police also recovered Taka 33,000 of the stolen money, a pistol-like object used in the robbery, and two mobile phones.
 
The arrested individuals are Md. Abdur Rahman Dabloo, 36, son of the late Salauddin of Sapura village under Boalia Police Station, and Abu Sadat Md. Sayem alias Milon, 48, son of the late Hasan from the Mirzapur area under Motihar Police Station.
 
At a press briefing held at the city DB office this afternoon, RMP spokesperson and Additional Deputy Police Commissioner Gaziur Rahman said that on April 14 at around 10:00 am., Md. Masud Rana, an employee of Pabna Dairy Farm, arrived at the Sapura Sales Center in Rajshahi from Pabna carrying 2,000 liters of chilled liquid milk. 

After unloading the milk, the center manager handed him Taka 165,600 to deposit at the company's head office. 

He placed the money behind the driver's seat of the truck and began his return journey to Pabna.
 
At around 2:30 p.m., when the truck reached North Kazirpara in the Belpukur Police Station area, a group of robbers riding an unregistered blue motorcycle blocked its path by creating a barricade. 

The criminals then smashed the truck's window, threatened the driver with a sharp weapon held to his throat, and forcibly took the Taka 165,600 from inside the vehicle before fleeing the scene.
 
Following the incident, a case was filed with Belpukur Police Station. A special DB team launched a shadow investigation. Using information technology, intelligence reports, and confidential sources, investigators were able to identify those involved in the robbery.
 
After the case was transferred to the DB, a special operation led to the arrest of the alleged mastermind, Abdur Rahman Dabloo, and direct participant Abu Sadat Md. Sayem alias Milon.
 
According to the DB, Taka 26,000 of the stolen money was recovered from Dabloo, while a pistol-like object used during the robbery and Taka 7,000 were recovered from Sayem alias Milon.
The total amount of recovered cash stands at Taka 33,000. Police also seized two mobile phones used by the suspects.
 
The two accused are currently in DB custody. The RMP spokesperson added that efforts are continuing to recover the remaining stolen money.
