Bangladeshi origin 12 new JMB members are present inside and outside the country at least according to the information of the law enforcement agencies. They all have a pseudonym 'Abdullah' and active in militant activities. Recently, the law enforcers started an inquiry about the fugitive 'Abdullah’, after the assassination of militant Abdullah RAB's operation in Mirpur Darussalam.
Dhaka Metropolitan Police and Counter Terrorism Unit sources have provided this information. An officer of the Counter Terrorism and Transitional Crime Unit (CTTC) told the Bangla Tribune that several teams, including the Bomb Disposal Unit of Counter Terrorism Unit, were already working to ensure that Abdullah was killed in Darussalam in Mirpur. Besides, an investigation has already begun on the matter of 12 Abdullah of new JMB.
The official further said that the members of the new JMB took the pseudonym by leaving their real name. They use various types of ‘Code words’ to communicate. In this way, many members try to become active in terrorist activities using the same name.
According to CTTC, Abdullah Al Mamun alias Abdullah, a militant of the Ansarullah Bangla Team (ABT), is active since 2011. Recently, he was caught by the Indian law enforcers from the Kutesara area of Muzaffarnagar district of Uttar Pradesh. His house is in Mymensingh district, Bangladesh.
Meanwhile, a converted militant Gourang Kumar Mandal accepted his organizational name Abdullah Hasan alias, Abdullah Al Jafri, though he is also known as ‘Tamim Dari’. His other names are Azizur Rahman alias Amir Hamza. He belongs to Uttarpara of Satkhira. While studying high school, he accepted Islam and took the name of Tamim Dari.
Abdullah (pseudonym), (another militant named Abdullah) was in CTTC list. His real name is Provat Kumar. After converting to Islam, he took his name as Abdullah and joined Ansarullah Bangla Team. Later he joined in New JMB. A lot of explosives were rescued from his house which is situated in the village Porahati, Thonthone ward. Later, Abdullah was killed in the operation of the law enforcers.
Besides, one-and-a-half years ago a new JMB member died in the capital. His name was Abdullah alias Noman.
About the militant Abdullah who was killed in Darus Salam Mirpur RAB chief Benazir Ahmed said, ‘In 2005, the information of JMB's involvement with him was found. In 2013, Abdullah was associated with the new JMB. He was a member of the Sarwar-Tamim Group of new JMB.
An RAB official said that Abdullah is the name of Prophet's father. That's why many of the new JMBs have this name. In addition, many militant hold different 'Kunya' (pseudonym) in the language of 'militants' alongside their real name.
In connection with the names of militants' Abdullah, the head of Dhaka Metropolitan Police's Additional Commissioner and Counter Terrorism Unit, Mr. Monirul Islam, said, ‘there are many militant members, whose names have the part ‘Abdullah’ before and after of their name.’
