Dhaka police alerted city cops about gangrape accused

Bengaluru team arrested all six accused within two hours of receiving intelligence on the gang who tortured and sexually assaulted a woman

A lead from the Dhaka police in Bangladesh helped their counterparts in Bengaluru track down the four men and two women who allegedly tortured and sexually assaulted a young woman a little over a fortnight ago. According to sources, the city police arrested the gang within two hours of receiving the information. The accused had recorded the incident and shared the video clips with their friends in Assam, spurring the police there into action. While the Assam Police posted photographs of the perpetrators on Twitter seeking information, the main lead came from the Dhaka Metropolitan Police. From the video clips, they identified one of the accused as Ridoy Babu alias Tiktok, 26. His full name is Raifatul Islam Ridoy, and he hails from Moghbazar in Dhaka. They passed on his mobile number to their counterparts in India.
