No trace of Jubo Dal leader for two weeks

Staff Correspondent
The wife of a Jubo Dal leader, whose whereabouts remain unknown for two weeks, has made an emotional plea for her husband's safe return.
Noor Alam, general secretary of the city's Pallabi thana unit of Jubo Dal, was picked up by some plainclothes men two weeks ago, his wife Rina Alam claimed yesterday.
"I want my husband back. Please do not make me widow and my children orphans,” a sobbing Rina told a press conference in Dhaka Reporters’ Unity.
Anxiety and uncertainty have gripped Noor's family after they had heard about the recovery of some bullethit bodies and shootout incidents that left several people having political affiliation dead in recent days.
Fearing a miserable fate of Noor, Rina sought the prime minister's intervention in finding out her husband.
At the press conference, Rina was describing how a group of plainclothes men wielding firearms picked up Noor from his brother's
home at Gazipur in the early hours of February 13.
“They did not hurt anyone (in the house). They did not take any valuables. Just picked him [Noor] up inside a microbus. They were, of course, the members of law enforcement agencies,” she said.
Noor, also a joint secretary of Dhaka City unit Jubo Dal, had been staying there to avert arrest, family members said, adding that he had been made accused in six to seven "political cases" filed in the ongoing blockade.
Rina said, "Around 1:00am on that day, we were woken up hearing sounds of repeated banging on the door. As we asked who were knocking the door, they introduced themselves as members of the administration.
"They also asked us to open the door. When we opened the door, a group of 8 to 10 people wielding firearms entered the room."
"They seized our cell phones first and checked the cell phone number of my husband. Then, two of them stepped forward and told my husband, 'Yes, he is the man whom we are looking for," she said, adding that they later took him with them.
"When we asked them where are you taking him [Noor]? A man of the group asked us to contact the local police station," Rina said.
Since then, the family members contacted several police stations and DB offices in Dhaka and Gazipur but failed to trace Noor's whereabouts.
They even visited several hospitals and morgues in the capital and Gazipur but did not find him. Noor's brother Nurul Islam filed a case with Joydevpur Police Station on February 17 in this connection.
Contacted, Khandaker Rezaul Hasan, officer-in-charge of the police station, said, "We did not find any information of his [Noor] arrest or detention in our preliminary investigation."
