A man was killed in a reported gunfight with the members of Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) in Bhaturia of Harinakundu upazila in Jhenaidah district on Tuesday night.
The deceased Amirul Islam Pocha, 43, was a member of an inter-district robber gang, claims the law enforcement agency, reports UNB.

Later, the RAB members recovered the bullet-hit body of Pocha and sent it to Harinakundu Upazila Health Complex, he said.
The law enforcement members recovered one shutter gun, two bullets and a sharp weapon from the spot, Golam Morshed said.
The deceased was wanted in 13 cases including that of murder and robbery, said the RAB official.
