The Assam police on Tuesday said that the former Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) and Neo JMB members are now working for AQIS to establish its network in the state in a major breakthrough following the arrest of four persons linked with Al-Qaeda in Indian Subcontinent (AQIS) and Ansarullah Bangla Team (ABT).
“Out of the four arrested persons, Sadeq Ali was earlier associated with JMB and Neo JMB and for the last two years has been working for AQIS and radicalising youths, including Jakibul Ali (who was also arrested by police) and others,” said a senior official of Assam police.
The police also said that the accused conducted several meetings in Nalbari, Barpeta, and some parts of Bodoland Territorial Region (BTR) this year and indoctrinated many youths to join the Bangladesh-based terror organisation.
“Sadeq Ali was arrested from Dongar Gaon Anchalik Madrassa under Tamulpur police station,” police added.
Four persons were arrested by Nalbari Police and Tamulpur Police in connection with involvement in Jihadi activities on 17 October.
The arrested accused were identified as Md. Habel Ali, 26, and Abu Raihan, 26, both hail from the Ghograpar area of the Nalbari district.
