Special Response Battalion (SRB) arrested alleged terrorist and juvenile gang leader Srabon alias "Kutta Srabon" and three of his associates from Rupganj in Narayanganj.
The elite Force also recovered a foreign-made pistol, a bullet, a magazine and six machetes from their possessions.

Lt Col Mohammad Masud Parvez, commanding officer of SRB-11, disclosed the information at a press conference at the SRB media centre in Karwan Bazar on Wednesday.
He said a special SRB-11 team conducted a drive in Chanpara area of Rupganj around 1am on Tuesday night based on secret information and arrested Srabon and his associates with the arms and ammunition.
According to Masud Parvez, Srabon had long been operating a juvenile gang and a criminal group in Rupganj and adjoining areas, involving teenagers and young people, and creating an atmosphere of disorder.
