The ‘foreign secretary’ Sashadhar Choudhury and ‘finance secretary’ Chitraban Hazarika of the Indian terrorist outfit United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) were arrested by intelligence officials from the Sector 3 area of Dhaka in the mid-night of November 1, according to Sentinel. Reports indicate that following confirmation of detention of two top ULFA leaders by Bangladesh, India on November 5 opened diplomatic channels to get them back into the country, adds Assam Tribune. The ‘deputy commander-in-chief’ of ULFA, Raju Baruah, however, claimed that their two leaders were already handed over to India by Bangladesh. Without naming India, Raju Baruah told a section of media in Assam through e-mail or telephonic talk that Bangladeshi intelligence officials arrested the duo from the Sector 3 area in Dhaka and handed them over to the "enemy". Raju Baruah further said that Bangladesh Police had raided some other areas in Dhaka where, they believed, the ULFA chairman Arabinda Rajkhowa was hiding. He also warned Bangladesh that the sovereignty of the country would be at stake if it did not set Sashadhar and Chitraban free. Meanwhile, the Indian Home Ministry officials denied this claim made by the ULFA.
