Four 'Neo JMB' members arrested from Ramna

Staff Correspondent
Counter Terrorism and Transnational Crime (CITC) unit yesterday claimed to have arrested four members of the militant group "Neo-JMB" from the capital's Ramna area.
The arrestees were identified as Arif Mollah (28), Ilias Hossain alias Mithu (28), Md Forhad Ali alias Fuad (31) and Muntasim Billah alias Sabbir (21).
On information, a CITC team arrested the four in front of Matsya Bhaban around 5:45pm on Sunday with cell phones and books on extremist ideology, Saiful Islam, deputy commissioner of CITC unit, told The Daily Star yesterday.
During interrogation, the arrestees admitted that they were active members of the banned militant group. In July last year, the arrestees recorded a video on the bank of Nagor river in Sanjaypur village under Bogura district to post in so-called Islamic State (IS) media, said Saiful Islam.
Rakibul Islam Ruhul alias Artagrul, the outfit's commander in Narsingdi and Narayanganj districts, allegedly led the arrestees in recording the video, he said.
Rakibul was arrested by CMC unit on November 11 last year from the capital's Jatrabari. Now in jail, Rakibul is the husband of Khadija Parveen Meghna, who along with another "Neo-JMB" female member Israt Jahan Mou, had surrendered to CTTC on October 17 last year from a hideout in Narsingdi's Cangpar area.
Since Rakibul was caught, Arif, Ilias, Forhad and Muntasim went into hiding but they recently surfaced after the group's current leaders instructed them to record a video for the "IS media", said CTTC officials.
"We have come to know that the arrestees were connected with the militant group and also had communication with their current leadership," said DC Saiful.
They were using different online IDs for communication and were also trying to regroup and collect firearms to carry out subversive activities, he said.
"We are now conducting drives to arrest other members of the group by tracing their location after collecting information by interrogating the arrestees," added DC Saiful.
A case was filed against the four with Ramna Police Station.
CTTC Inspector Raju Ahmed later produced the arrestees to a Dhaka court, seeking 10-day remand for interrogation. The court granted two-day remand.
Metropolitan Magistrate Abu Sayeed passed the order.
