The Bangladesh police have recovered a huge cache of military-grade explosives and ammunitions from Satchhari National Park in Habiganj District, a media report said.
The recovery was made by the Counter-Terrorism and Transnational Crime (CTTC) unit of the police, Dhaka Tribune reported. Some 15 rocket-propelled grenades (RPG), 510 rounds of machine gun ammunitions and 25 boosters (used as a propelling charge in RPG launchers) were found during the special drive, the report added.
