While local Police of Assam, suspect Alom has been associated with JMB for about three years or so, NIA has found evidence of his frequent trips to Bardhaman and other places in West Bengal. The Assam Police meanwhile is on the look-out for Alom’s wife Sajina, who hails from Chenimari Borpitha village in Barpeta District, for her alleged links with JMB. Sajina, Police said, had attended a madrasa (Islamic seminary) in Bardhaman District, before she got married to Alom.

A seven-member National Investigation Agency (NIA) team, along with experts of the Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL), raided an aluminum factory in Shantipara of Buardhaman District on November 2, reports The Times of India.Abdul Hakim, the Jamatul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) terrorist who was injured in the bomb blast at Khagragarh on October 2, 2014 and presently admitted at SSKM Hospital in Kolkata, used to work in the factory. The factory is very near from the Khagragarh blast site. Hakim's wife Amina Biwi, who is in NIA custody at present, has told the investigators during interrogations that Abdul Hakim has been working at that factory for INR 100 per day remuneration. On October 1, a day before the blast, Hakim had worked there for the last time.NIA has learnt that Hakim used to regularly visit the Simulia madrasa (Islamic seminary). In the morning, Hakim used to work in the factory and at night he used to make IEDs (Improvised Explosive Device) and bullets to fool the neighbours by showing that he was working in a factory in Burdwan, his wife told NIA.

Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi said the Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) was trying to establish a women’s wing in the state, Indian Express reports on November 4. “The JMB was trying to set up a women’s wing in Assam. They have already attracted a number of youth from Assam, some of whom have also gone abroad to train in jihad,” Gogoi said. He also said that Barpeta District in Assam had become a major concentration of jihadi elements. “They are most active in Barpeta District,” Gogoi said. On a question about surveillance on madrasas (Islamic seminary) in the state, Gogoi said not all madrasas are in the radar of the Police. “Just because one of two madrasas have been identified or persons associated with madrasas have been arrested does not mean all the madrasas are involved in jihadi activities. We cannot blame all,” he said.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) continued its investigation of Bardhaman blast accused Sahanur Alom and his wife Sajina in Assam and inspected the duo's bank accounts on November 4, reports The Times of India. Sources in the NIA said Alom holds at least three bank accounts in two nationalized banks in Barpeta District whose transaction details they are cross-checking."Hawala [illegal money transfer] money generated in Bangladesh used to be routed through Assam with Alom's help. His dental clinic would receive the funds. Infiltrators, part of the JMB [Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh], would drop in from Bangladesh and park funds with Alom," said NIA sources.

On November 6, Assam Police arrested Susena Begum alias Sajina Begum, wife of Sahanur Alam, who is one among the 12 people wanted by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in connection with October 2, 2014 Bardhaman (West Bengal) blast, reports New Indian Express. She was arrested from the Inter-state bus terminus on the outskirts of Guwahati. Police had received a tip-off that she was hiding in nearby Gorchuk area. “We were searching for her and her husband Sahanur Alam. Finally, we managed to arrest her. The arrest was made based on specific information,” Assam’s Director General of Police (DGP) Khagen Sarma commented.“We have not learnt much as of now as she is yet to be interrogated. During interrogation, we will try to find out the whereabouts of her fugitive husband among others,” he said. Sahanur went underground along with Sajina and their two children after the police had arrested six people in connection with the blast case from Assam’s Barpeta District last month. The investigators believed that Sahanur and his wife carried money, sourced in Bangladesh, to the Simulia madrasa (Islamic seminary) in West Bengal. The madrasa is in news for its link to terror outfit Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB).

National Investigation Agency (NIA) on November 7 arrested Amjad Sheikh alias Kajal, a Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) militant and an accused in the Bardhaman blasts (October 2, 2014) case from Birbhum District of West Bengal, reports The Times of India. According to NIA, Kajal procured explosives from various chemical shops in Kolkata on the pretext of legitimate business and supplied it to bomb-makers such as Shakil Ghazi and Shobhan Mandal, who died in the Bardhaman blast. These bombs were then transported across the border by couriers such as Kausar. He is suspected to be part of a network in Delhi which NIA is now investigating. It is also suspected that he procured explosive chemicals from at least two suppliers in Delhi who also have businesses in Kolkata. After Kajal got a hint that intelligence agencies had tracked him to Delhi, Kajal fled to Basti in Uttar Pradesh where a state Policeman, who was an acquaintance, provided him shelter. However, choosing not to stay anywhere for too long, he again fled to Birbhum from where he was arrested.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on November 7, arrested an alleged operative of the Jama’at-ul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB), Zia-ul-Haque, in connection with the October 2, 2014 Bardhaman (West Bengal) blast case, from Talha Masjid in Khagragarh area of Bardhaman District, reports Indian Express. Haque, a resident of Old Gurutolla in Malda District of West Bengal, is considered to be closely associated with top JMB ‘commanders’, and absconding operatives Rezaul Karim and Yusuf Sheikh alias Moulana Yusuf. The probe allegedly revealed that Haque worked as a motivator. He used to collect jihadi videos and these clips were allegedly then shown to terror recruits at the Simulia and Mukhimnagar madrasas (Islamic seminary) in Districts of Bardhaman and Murshidabad.

West Bengal Police on November 8 arrested Sheikh Rahmatullah alias Sajid, ‘chief commander’ of Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) and key accused in Bardhaman blast (October 2, 2014) case from Jessore Road near Kolkata airport, reports The Times of India. Sajid carried a reward of INR 10, 00,000 which was announced by the NIA last week. The Bidhannagar Anti-Terror Squad (ATS) and Kolkata Police Special Task Force (STF) made the arrest and handed him over to the National Investigation Agency (NIA). According to NIA sources, Sajid was "one of the key leaders in the JMB conspiracy" and his arrest will help unravel the outfit's terror designs not only against Bangladesh but also on possible Indian targets. "He was one of the key JMB leaders and is undoubtedly a big catch," a senior NIA official commented.Though security agencies believe the arrest will unravel hawala (illegal money transaction) chain that brings funds from Bangladesh to run terror modules in India. "Initial investigation reveals that Sajid was about to receive INR 1, 00,000 through a courier. This is why he had travelled to North 24-Parganas. We intercepted the courier and persuaded him to convince Sajid to come to Jessore Road. Sources said Sajid was jailed for several years in Bangladesh and was closely working with bomb-maker Boma Mizan, who is now reportedly hiding in West Bengal. ATS officer R N Banerjee said they seized fake driving licenses and PAN cards from Sajid. "We found four fake identities in the name of Buran Sheikh with a Nanoor, Birbhum address. He also used the alias Surat Ali and gave his address as Sahebganj, Jharkhand," said an officer. Both addresses are important — while Birbhum District’s Kirnahar has been found to be a hotbed of JMB activities, the module reportedly had training centres in Jharkhand."In the initial stages of questioning, Sajid said he was looking to create a greater Bangladesh that will strictly follow Shariat law," said a source.

Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) allegedly involved in the October 2, 2014 Bardhaman blast, was planning to carry out terror attacks in India, in addition to the outfit's plans to trigger explosion in the neighbouring country, New Indian Express reports on November 10. According to the sources who questioned Sajid, alleged to be a mastermind of the blast, JMB was trying to set up a terror network in West Bengal, particularly in three Districts of Murshidabad, Nadia, Malda, and in Assam through armed struggle besides having an 'Shariyat' rule in Bangladesh, official sources said. In the process, the banned terror group was ready to do terror acts to achieve their goal, Sajid, a Bangladeshi national and stated to be the 'chief commander' of JMB, is claimed to have confessed before the investigators. The Times of India adds on November 12 that JMB was to evolve as a disciplined 'army' and not a terror outfit. Sajid has revealed that his wife Fatima, an Indian, was tasked with setting up woman's modules in states of Jharkhand and Odisha. Sajid went on to claim that women played a very important role in this operation. "Their role was not limited to teaching the Sharia laws or transporting the bombs. We had also advised them to travel to other states and encourage others to join. Some of the women were also told to lay honey traps on government officials to seek information and also favours," said Sajid Ali. "It worked to a large extent in West Bengal and we were confident that it would work in other states as well. The Majlis-e-Shura or the central committee of the Jamaat maintained that what we needed to build was an army and not a terror outfit. We were told to deploy the tactics that an army would do," Sajid told the NIA officials. Sajid reportedly said there are 13 active Jihadi couples, while at least two dozen others are part of the sleeper cells. "Most of these women hail from poor socio-economic background. Once they completed education at Simulia and Lalgola madrasas (Islamic seminary) they underwent a 'personality' test. Those found fit for 'Jihad' were asked to marry cadres from Bangladesh," said a source.

National Investigation Agency (NIA) is investigating the angle of Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) involvement in the Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) business, according to a Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) source, bdnews24.com reports. Indian intelligence agencies believe that FICN are used to fund the activities of outfits such as JMB and Indian Mujahideen (IM) in the country.It is believed that NIA has many vital clues about the involvement of Northeast India-based militant organisations with the FICN business. Officials also believe that some Assam-based insurgent outfits including United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) and National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) might also be involved in the FICN trade. Muslim fundamentalist outfits in Assam are also on the radar of the security agencies. “There is every possibility that under influence of several external forces, the Northeast-based militant organisations may get involved in fake notes business only to crash our economy,” a senior UMHA official handling Northeast affairs said. Official data reveal that FICN worth INR 10,534,205 were seized from across Assam and Meghalaya during the last three years.

A court in Kolkata on November 11 sent Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) militant Amjad Sheikh, a key conspirator in the October 2, 2014 Bardhaman blast to National Investigation Agency (NIA) custody till November 20, 2014, reports IANSLive. Absconding after the blast, Sheikh allegedly was hiding in Uttar Pradesh (UP) before his eventual arrest from West Bengal. The Times of India adds that the UP Policeman who gave shelter Sheikh has turned out to be a Constable with the Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) which guards the Indo-Nepal and Bhutan borders. It has also been found that the Constable was aware of the antecedents of the accused and yet not only sheltered him in Basti, UP, but also made arrangements for his hideout in Chennai (Tamil Nadu) later. According to NIA sources, the SSB constable, who also hails from the same place in Birbhum (West Bengal) to which Sheikh belonged, had been consistently helping him following the blast.

The three have been reported missing for a while now. The NIA has announced a reward of INR 500,000 for anyone who provides information leading to his arrest. An NIA team visited Chatala on November 11 for the third time since naming Sahanur as key conspirator a few weeks ago. A source said the NIA officials found that at least two to three youth from the village have gone underground. "One of them is Anar Ali, who has not been seen in the village for a long time. He, along with the others, is Sahanur's companion," the source added. The NIA asked the headman of the Chatala village to furnish details of the missing youth. New Indian Express adds that on November 11, NIA raided house of Sahanur Alam at Chatala village. The NIA also summoned the Chatala village chief and asked him to submit a list of the names of those, who had disappeared from the village in recent times. Following the search NIA officials scoured the two bank accounts of Sahanur, who is on the run and believed to be hiding either in Meghalaya or South India. “The JMB [Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh] has been trying to spread its tentacles to some key areas of Assam. However, the indoctrination of youths in jihadi philosophy is at a nascent stage,” Additional Director General of Police (ADGP) Pallab Bhattacharya commented.

A discreet survey of the country's madrasas (Islamic seminary) by the government has reportedly found the foreigners teaching there, largely Bangladeshi instructors who have managed to acquire Indian identity documents, to be a key source of indoctrination among young Indian Muslims, The Times of India reports on November 13. The report, submitted to the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) in October, 2014, has flagged the mushrooming of unaided and unregulated madrasas along the Indo-Bangladesh or Indo-Nepal border in West Bengal, Assam and Terai region. "Many of these seminaries have foreign teachers, mostly Bangladeshis who have worked closely with elements associated with outfits such as Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB). They digress from the normal religious teachings and 'correct' interpretation of Islam by madrasas having Indian teachers, and highlight the alleged atrocities on Indian Muslims through videos and other provocative material. The aim is to exploit the feeling of alienation or discontent among young impressionable Muslims, with the larger purpose of radicalizing them to take up jihadi terror," said a senior official who has perused the report on madrasas across the country. Sources indicated that the government is contemplating a separate study to identify the "foreign" teachers who may be dispensing jihadi doctrine at madrasas, particularly those located close to the border with Bangladesh and Nepal. The concern over foreign instructors at Indian madrasas is explained by the fact that most of the Bardhaman blast accused are Bangladeshis who were indoctrinating Muslim men and women in West Bengal and teaching them how to make bombs for terror acts in Bangladesh as well as India.

National Investigation Agency (NIA) has tracked the source of funds utilised in Bardhaman (West Bengal ) blast of October 2, 2014 to sustain the Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) modules in India, The Times of India reports on November 14. The agency has identified a man named Abdul Noor, suspected to be a key operative of the outfit in Bangladesh, as the man who carried cash tranches across the border periodically. NIA has also identified a JMB operative from West Bengal who was working as a mason in Jammu and Kashmir. The man has already been interrogated by the agency. The agency has also found that not only did all members have wives who were equally involved in all terror acts but the top brass among the Indian module had more than one wife who were all engaged in terror activities. In fact, marriages were deliberately solemnised among members of the module much on the lines of Maoists. Women were, however, given training only in firing of weapons and not in making of bombs. "This is a unique development as far as jihadi terrorism in India is concerned. The JMB module in India has 50 per cent women. All have been indoctrinated, well-trained in physical combat and weapon operation and married to their jihadi colleagues," said an NIA officer.

The officials of Central intelligence agencies have unearthed the network of Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) Bardhaman (West Bengal) terror modules link in Jharkhand, New Indian Express reports on November 15. Sources in the government stated that JMB terrorists had opened two Jihadi Madrasas (Islamic seminary) in Sahibganj District of Jharkhand to recruit and train terror modules. The Bardhaman terror handlers were already operating two separate madrasas in Simulia and Murshidabad, which was primarily focusing on female Jihadis. “The two Madrasas in Sahibganj are linked to Bardhaman terrorists. They were already operating two Madrasas in West Bengal. It appears the JMB terror had become a diffuse movement with recruits in other states that threaten the country,” sources said. Sources also confirmed that at least 110 Jihadis were trained in all four madrasas, including West Bengal and Jharkhand. They were trained in Improvised Explosive Device (IED), rifle shooting and Jihadi ideology. Sources admitted that with the new revelations, JMB-Bardhaman terror module has emerged as the country’s top terrorism concern. “The indoctrinated youth remain a threat to Security and Intelligence agencies. Jharkhand has become a fertile ground for Jihadi recruits by Indian Mujahideen (IM) and it appears the JMB’s key handlers have taken advantage of it. A thorough probe is on to find out the Jharkhand madrasas’ handlers and trainers,” sources added.

Khaled Mohammed, the Myanmar national arrested from Hyderabad on November 16 in connection with Bardhaman (West Bengal) blast of October 2, 2014, disclosed that Indian Mujahideen (IM), Tehreek-e-Taliban (TTP) and Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) had joined hands for terror activities in India, Deccan Chronicle reports on November 23. Khaled disclosed that he had come to India with a specific target of increasing JMB's terror network in the country with help of local outfits like IM. Intelligence sources said that Khaled had been running a number of training camps along Indian border in Bangladesh and Myanmar. During this time he came in contact with members of TTP who further trained him in making explosives. Khaled also said that he was directed by some top JMB and Taliban leaders to shift base to India and spread terror activities there. It is suspected that after crossing over into Indian through Bangladesh border, Khaled had also stayed at the Bardhaman hideout for sometime. “Khaled has made some important disclosures but we will interrogate him in detail once we get a longer custody from the designated court in Kolkata. The NIA [National Investigation Agency] team that has returned from Bangladesh has got some fresh inputs which needs to be further investigated and Khaled’s questioning will be extremely important,’’ an official said.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA), investigating the October 2 Bardhaman blast, is looking for Gulshan Bibi- “drug queen" from Kolkata, now reportedly based in Chennai (Tamil Nadu), New Indian Express reports on November 16. Gulshan Bibi, who fled to Chennai years ago, still runs, through remote control, the narcotics business and sleuths have found connections between her and Islamic terrorists, said NIA sources.

But NIA sources in Kolkata said Gulshan provided shelter to two Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) terrorists, who visited Chennai before the May 1 blasts at the Central railway station.

On November 17, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) arrested a suspected Myanmar national, Khaleed alias Khalid Mohammed who was allegedly trained by Tehreek-i-Taliban (TTP) from Hyderabad in connection with the Bardhaman (West Bengal) blast case, report The Times of India. Khaleed who had been residing in Hyderabad on the basis of alleged fake documents, was arrested by the State Police on November 16 following an intelligence tip-off by central security agencies, official sources said today. He was handed over to the NIA a day later. Khaleed is believed be an expert in Improvised Explosive Device (IED), the NIA said and claimed that he belonged to Rohingiya solidarity organisation and had links with Bangladesh-based terrorist groups. The NIA also claimed that he was involved in running terror camps in bordering areas of Bangladesh and Myanmar. A search at his residence led sleuths to his laptop which contained incriminating videos of training material, literature relating to various kinds of poison, IED-making, bomb-making, explosives and 'Jihadi' Literature including that relating to IS (Islamic State). Here was a man (Khalid) helping militant groups, which are opposed to the nation states of Pakistan (TTP) and Bangladesh (JMB) and were using Bengal as their base. "There is thus no doubt now that they were planning subversive attacks on India also," said an NIA officer. After the arrest, the jail authorities stepped up security in West Bengal jails housing Rohingyas. The security agencies have now started collaborating details on the routes taken by the Rohingyas to enter West Bengal. Intelligence Bureau (IB) sources said the Rohingya Muslims are infiltrating mainly through the Indo-Bangladesh border at Swarupnagar, Basirhat and Gaighata Police Station areas.

Intelligence agencies tracking the October 2, 2014 Bardhaman (West Bengal) blast said that some madrasas (Islamic Seminary) in West Bengal had indoctrinated children to hatred and violence, New Indian Express reports on November 20. The interrogation of terror suspect, Sujena Begum, wife of Sahanur Alom, has revealed that Simulia Madrasa used by Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) as terror training centre had admitted a few girls from Assam in the 11-18 age group. Sujena told interrogators that she was brought to Simulia Madrasa in 2012 by her husband. She and other inmates had imparted training in physical activities and arms handling, she said. Sujena said the girls were from West Bengal, Assam and Jharkhand. The agencies said Sujena, after completing her training, became a Jihadi trainer in Barpeta District of Assam and had organised training of women in her locality. Agencies alleged that some religious leaders from West Bengal were involved in indoctrination in Madrasas and the event is locally called as ‘Dharma Mahasabhas’. Agencies said jihadi preachers are targeting students and Hafiz alias Hedayutallah, a suspected Bangladeshi national, was involved in propagating hardline Wahabi brand of Islam followed in Saudi Arabia.

The Times of India on October 20 adds that the NIA officials are on the lookout for three children of Yousuf Sheikh, Rahima Khatoon (5), Asifa Khatoon (4) and son Khattab Sheikh (2). Yousuf Sheikh is one of the key accused in the Burdwan blast case, who used to give jihadi training at the Simulia madrassa in Mangalkote. NIA officials believe that Yousuf, who is now absconding, will not take the risk of travelling with three kids, as they are too young and this can even lead to his identification. NIA officials also suspect that Yousuf would try to cross the border to reach Bangladesh. The NIA is getting new clues to a wider terror network with each passing day of its investigation into the Burdwan blast case, reported The Times of India on October 19. An intelligence sources said that What was suspected to be the handiwork of elements from Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), Harkat-ul-Jihadi Islami (HuJI) and Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) of India and Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) of Bangladesh now seems to point to a much bigger network that was trying to recruit, train and push back cadres into Bangladesh and parts of Assam to "revive Jihadi terrorism."
