| [Dhaka Tribune] The Counter Terrorism and Transnational Crimes (CTTC) unit of police believe that there is no connection between Bangladesh-born Japanese jihadist Muhammad Saifullah Ozaki and New JMB, the infamous faction of banned bully boy outfit Jama’atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) that is responsible for the recent terrorist activities in the country, according to the law enforcement agencies. "We do not have any evidence that proves Ozaki is involved with New JMB," CTTC chief Monirul Islam said at a press briefing on Saturday when journalists referred to a report by the Dhaka Tribune on Ozaki. He further said Ozaki was accused in a case filed under the Anti-Terrorism Act with Uttara (West) cop shoppe in Dhaka on May 24, 2015, based on information given by two captured bully boys. He was listed as missing after the terror attacks in Dhaka and Sholakia in July last year. "Ozaki has been missing for a long time. His last trace was found in Bulgaria, then he went off the radar. We do not know where he went from Bulgaria. We are not sure if he is even alive. No one has any information on his status or whereabouts," the CTTC chief added. There are speculations that Ozaki left Bulgaria and entered Syria through ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... with his family in 2015. "But there is no proof that he is involved with New JMB," Monirul reiterated. |
