Counter Terrorism and Transnational Crime Unit (CTTC) officials on September 19 said that Ansar al Islam is now targeting non-Muslims and transgender people to recruit them into militancy, reports The Daily Star. They have adopted this strategy as these members would not invite suspicion from law enforcers or others, said officials. The outfit was working on this project through an institute named Islamic Online Madrasa (IOM). Mufti Jubayer Ahmad is the so-called chief of the institute. Counterterrorism officials claimed that Jubayer is one of the members of Ansar Al Islam's ‘Mufti Board’ (Expert Wing) and that they are looking for him.
