Border Guard Bangladesh(BGB) members arrested a man with 1500 grams of crystal meth at Gotherbil in Teknaf upazila Wednesday .
Confirming the information, Lt Col Md Faisal Hasan Khan, commanding officer of BGB Battalion 2 of Teknaf said Md Abdul Majid was arrested from a three-story building in the area.
When a BGB patrol team signaled Majid’s bike to halt he turned his bike around, initiating a chase off.
At one stage, Majid left the bike and ran inside a building.
The BGB team cordoned off the building and arrested Majid.
Two bags containing 1500 grams of crystal meth were seized from him, said Lt Col Md Faisal.
The arrestee will be handed over to Teknaf police and a case will be filed at the police station over the drug bust, he added.
The same BGB team arrested Md Mujib, 20, along with 2000 grams of crystal meth from Mithapanichara of Teknaf last weeks.
