Dhaka, Sep 09 (V7N) – Fugitive death row convict Md. Rubel, who escaped from Gazipur's Kashimpur Central Jail, was arrested by the Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) on Sunday afternoon. 

RAB's media department confirmed the arrest, stating that Rubel was apprehended in a joint operation conducted by RAB-8 and RAB-10 from the Keraniganj area in the capital. Following the arrest, Rubel will be handed over to the jail authorities.

This operation follows the earlier arrest of four other fugitive convicts sentenced to death, who were captured by RAB from Narayanganj, Manikganj, and Munshiganj on Wednesday, 4 September. The capture of Rubel marks the latest success in RAB's efforts to bring absconding convicts to justice.
