Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein on November 5 called on the Government of Bangladesh to take urgent and concerted measures to ensure the protection of all those who are being 'threatened by extremists' operating in the country, reports New Nation. He said "At least five Bangladeshi writers and publishers as well as two foreign aid workers have been violently murdered this year in Dhaka and many more attacked and threatened, apparently by groups that believe they have the right to impose their views on others through wanton violence. The State must not allow extremist groups to take matters into their own hands. I urge political and religious leaders to consistently and unequivocally condemn this spate of vicious killings and threats against writers and publishers and anyone else who may be targeted by these groups. When people have been explicitly threatened with violence or murder, it is the duty of the State to provide them with effective protection."

Denying the existence of Islamic State (IS) in Bangladesh, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina Wajed on November 8 said a local and foreign conspiracy is afoot to establish that cohorts of IS are active in the country, reports The Daily Star. She said “Many quarters are pressing us to confess the IS existence in Bangladesh to create a situation here like the ones in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Libya. They want to bring Bangladesh in line with those countries and that is the part of their conspiracy. My question is, if they can take an acknowledgement from us of the existence of IS in Bangladesh, what will be the situation of our country? We don't want a situation in Bangladesh like Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria or Libya.”

The Islamic State (IS) has warned that the terror group is preparing for fresh attacks in Bangladesh, reports Dhaka Tribune on November 21. In the latest edition of its online propaganda magazine ‘Dabiq,’ the extremist groups strategic expansion to countries like Bangladesh is discussed at length. The extremist group dedicated an entire article titled “The Revival of Jihad in Bengal” to their activities in Bangladesh or Bengal as it refers to the country. The magazine said reiterating IS' claim of carrying out the attacks. “A security cell belonging to the soldiers of the Khilafah in Bengal assassinated an Italian crusader named Cesare Tavella on the streets of Gulshan in the city of Dhaka. Only days later, another security cell targeted a Japanese citizen in the northern region of Rangpur. These back-to-back attacks have caused havoc among the citizens of the crusader nations and their allies living in Bengal and forced their diplomats, tourists and expats to limit their movements and live in a constant state of fear.” The article claimed that while IS was busy preparing for further attacks, the secular Awami League Government continued to “twist the facts” on the ground and play a blame game.
