The arrested have been identified as Zarak Ahmed, 38, Abul Kalam Riftiyar, 38, Md Jamir Hossain, 36, Md. Sajal Ahmed, 30, and Abdur Rahman Rubel, 56.

Acting on a tip-off, police arrested them, conducting a series of raids in Dhaka, Gazipur, and Narayanganj districts on Tuesday night, said Deputy Commissioner of Police of Tejgaon Division Ibne Mizan at a press briefing held at the DMP media centre here.

Police said Md. Imdadul Haque Khan alias Naushad, 42, is a car dealer who has a car showroom in the city's Tejgaon.

Managing Director of AB Drive Ltd. Zarak Ahmed, 38, and Chairman Md. Jamir Hossain, 36, took four cars from Imdadul for sale at different times from November 26 to December 4 last year for their showroom located in the Nardda Pragati Soroni area under Bhatara Police Station.
