Inspector Arafat Hossain was arrested early on Friday for his alleged involvement in the burning of dead bodies in Ashulia on August 5, the day of the people-student uprising.
A team of RAB-3 arrested him from Aftabnagar in the capital.
Recently, a video went viral on social media Facebook, which shows a number of policemen carrying the bullet-ridden bodies to a van and covering them with a banner. It was later alleged that the bodies were set on fire.
One of the men seen wearing a police vest and helmet in the video is Arafat Hossain. He went into hiding after the video came to light.
