On May 20, Hasan Mahmood Khandaker, Director General of the Rapid Action Battalion (RAB), said that the militant group Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami Bangladesh (HuJI-B) had been marginalised following a crackdown, reports Hindustan Times. “Bangladesh banned the HuJI group years ago after it was banned in the United States and other countries as a top militant organisation,” he said. He further said, “Dozens of HuJI activists in Bangladesh including their chief Mufti Abdul Hannan have been detained over the years. While we don’t rule out the existence of HuJI in Bangladesh, we can say their activity has been drastically controlled by the security agencies here.”
