Bangladesh arrests 15 extremist suspects in major sweep
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Bangladesh police arrested 15 suspected members of a banned murderous Moslem group from the country’s second-largest city, officials said Saturday.

Chittagong police conducted multiple arrests across the port city, including the regional commander and activists of the outlawed Hizbut Tahrir
...an al-Qaeda recruiting organization banned in most countries. It calls for the reestablishment of the Caliphate...
(HT) group, police front man Shah Abdur Rouf said.

"The turbans were being reorganiZed in the city," he told AFP, adding police recovered laptops, mobile phones, murderous Moslem books, and cash to be used for "subversive activities."

The group was banned in the South Asian nation in 2009 for carrying out "anti-state and anti-democratic" activities.

Possibly it is time to reassess that decision.
It was banned in Bangladesh in 2009 for carrying out "anti-state and anti-democratic" activities.

Bangladesh has seen a spate of fatal violence caused by Lions of Islam in recent years, including the 2016 ISIS-claimed cafe attack in Dhaka which killed 22 people, mostly foreigners.
