He added that all law-enforcing agencies would work together to recover government land from illegal occupation in Jungle Salimpur. Authorities have long described Jungle Salimpur, on the outskirts of Chattogram, as a hotspot for crime and illegal settlements. An estimated 400 to 500 miscreants launched a sudden attack on RAB members after announcements over a loudspeaker, the statement said. Asked whether the Jungle Salimpur raid was conducted with a small number of personnel, the RAB DG said around 50 officers took part in the operation. Police say Jungle Salimpur is a zone where outsiders outnumber locals.
