Commanding Officer of Rab-11 Lt Col Jahangir Alam, who led the raid, said they busted Azmeri's office as part of their investigation in the sensational Toki murder case.

The Rab has information that Azmeri is still in Narayanganj, he added.

Tanvir Mohammad Toki, an A-level student and son

of former president of Narayanganj Sangskritik Jote Rafiur Rabbi, was found dead on the bank of the Shitalakkhya on March 8, two days after he went missing.

Rafiur had complained that his son was detained and tortured to death at Azmeri's office, which was used by "Osman family as a torture cell."

Following the murder of Toki, Santrash Nirmul Toki Mancha had handed over a list of five "torture cells" used by the Osman family to district police super, which included the office of Azmeri.

Also yesterday, the Rab raided the house of Rajib, an accused in the Toki murder case, but to no avail.

Contacted, Rafiur Rabbi

said people were "detained, tortured and killed at the torture cell" of Azmeri. He demanded the law enforcers arrest Azmeri and his uncle Awami League leader Shamim Osman before they make an escape.

Despite repeated attempts, The Daily Star could not reach Nasim Osman over the phone for his comments on the raid.
