Bangladesh Bangladesh: The new militant outfit is supported and funded by Jamaat-e-Amir
Dhaka, 18 December 2022: Police have found a funding for a new terror organization which is operating in Bangladesh.
In support of his son Dr. Rafat joined the new militant organization. Several people also took training in the organization with his direct support.
Commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Khandkar Golam Farooq said these things in response to questions from journalists after the felicitation ceremony for brave police freedom fighters at Rajarbag police auditorium in the capital on Saturday (December 17).
He said that the defeated forces of '71 tried to spread militancy in different forms at different times. They have tried to steal the freedom of the country. We have seen that militancy was attempted in this country in 2012-13, 2015-16 and 2005-06.
The DMP commissioner said that the son of the current Jamaat-e-Islami emir got involved in militancy. He joined Jamaatul Ansar Phil Hindal Sharqiya. But the Amir of Baba Jamaat knowingly supported and financed him. With his money, the boy was organizing others. We arrested him because of this financing.
In response to another question, he said, with the direct support of Jamaat's emir, several people have taken training in new militant organizations. We have seen in the past that the people of this country did not support militancy, nor will they in the future. In the past too, we have suppressed and controlled militancy with a firm hand. In the month of victory, I want to say that in the future, militancy will be controlled with a strict hand by taking the people of this country with us. Militancy cannot rise in this country.
When asked whether any other leader of Jamaat was found to be involved or not, the commissioner said, we have received several other information. Our campaign is underway. But for the sake of privacy, I am not disclosing that information now. I will give details about this after the campaign is successful.
