13 of its activists.

Shibir used the dens to impart training to its members to carry out arson attacks on vehicles on the Dhaka-Chittagong highway, and different subversive activities in the upazila, police said.

Assistant Superintendent of Police (Sitakunda Circle) Salauddin Sikdar said a joint team of BGB and police had discovered the dens in the upazila's Tulatoli area in a two-hour raid that started around 6:30pm, and arrested the Shibir activists.

The team also recovered many jihadi books, petrol, diaries with operation details, and mobile phone sets containing the video footages and photos of different acts of sabotage carried out by them.

Law enforcers launched the operation after Shibir activists set fire to two vehicles in Jalil Gate area near Faujdarhat around 3:30 pm.
