After a brief stay at a coaching centre in Jalcswaritola, Rahman and his men had left the area in a blue private car, said a source in the DB. The coaching centre is the one-time workplace of Bangla Bhai.
Tire JMB chief and his two cadres
went to the coaching centre at around 2:00pm and left in just 15 minutes after using the toilet facilities there.

Awal went into hiding soon after the countrywide serial blasts on August 17.
Officials of another intelligence agency confirmed that Rahman had been to Bogra with some of his men a few days back. They, however, could not say whether Bangla Bhai was with him.
They also said the JMB boss has close connections with international militant organisations.
Meanwhile, sources in police and Ahle Hadith Andolan Bangladesh (Ahab) said the wife of detained Ahab chairman Asadullah al Galib has started organising the women activists of Ahab. The organisations' activities had halted after Galib's arrest a few months ago on charges of being involved in militancy.

"I don't have any such information," he told The Daily Star last night.
Asked about the failure of the DB raid to nab Rahman, he said he has no knowledge of that matter as well. DHAKA
