"Like him, many other JMB members also visit the absconding operative in India." Mizan was quoted as saying.
"JMB used to collect power gel and detonators from India as those are available there," said a top official of Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) wishing anonymity.
He mentioned that those are widely used in India for razing hills.
Mizan also said "Bhagne" Shahid alias Nazmul. who is JMB commander of northern region of the country, might operate a "mini munitions factory" like the ones at East Monipur in the city, which Rab busted on May 15. He however could not give the location of the factory.
Nazmul was trained by Mizan in explosives.
Another investigator said, Mizan hinted at some persons who are playing significant role in JMB activities but he is yet to give their whereabouts."
