Rab nabs 4 JMB men in 3 days
2009-07-16
Rapid Action Battalion arrested four members of the banned Islamist outfit Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh at the city's Rupnagar, Kanchpur in Narayanganj and in Jamalpur during the last three days. The Rab personnel also seized 38 shells of grenades and a large number of books on jihad.
A kinder, gentler RAB ...
The arrestees are Ehsar members (full timers) Kurri Mohammad Saidur Rahman, 28, and Mohammad Akkas Ali alias Akash, 25, of Muktagachha in Mymensingh, Gayeri Ehsar member (part timer) Mohammad Rokanuzzaman, 24, of Jamalpur and member Mohammad Saidur Miah, 32, of Jamalpur.

Rab-1 acting Director Maj Suman Ahmmed said they arrested Saidur Rahman at a house in Kanchpur of Narayanganj Tuesday and following his confessions they arrested Akash at a house in Rupnagar of Mirpur in the capital. Following their painful confessions, Rab arrested Rokanuzzaman and Saidur Miah at a house in Jamalpur Sadar upazila yesterday morning, Maj Suman said.

According to Rab officials, they recovered the shells of grenades and books on jihad from the house of Azizul Huq of Chitalia in Jamalpur Sadar upazila. He could not be arrested.

Replying to a query, Rab officials said the JMB men were preparing to launch grenade attacks. The major said some of the JMB men have been trying to organise a separate platform--Islam O Muslim--of the militant organisation.
