Boma Mizan sentenced to 29 years for Khagragarh blast case in India
From a week ago.
[DhakaTribune] Indian court sentences Jahidul Islam Mizan - also known as Boma Mizan - to 29 years of prison for the Khagragarh blast of 2014.

An Indian court sentenced Jahidul Islam Mizan
...also sometimes known as Mohammed Jahidul Islam, he’s the Big Turban, the Number 1 of Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen India (JMI). When the organization was stood up in 2018, he reported directly to Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) Number 1 Salahuddin Salehin alias Hafizur Rahman Sheikh alias Mahin...
alias Kausar - also known as Boma Mizan - to 29 years of imprisonment for the Khagragarh blast of 2014.

Special NIA Judge Suvendu Samanta sentenced five years of imprisonment to Sheikh Kausar, on five counts and two years each for other offences, which he will have to serve consecutively. Kausar confessed before a court, and will also have to pay a fine of Rs 29,000 for his offences.

NIA counsel Shyamal Ghosh said that Kausar was convicted under various sections of the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA), as he waged war against entities associated with the Indian government, the Foreigners Act and created conspiracies.

The JMB is said to be the youth front of Al Mujahideen, the parent organization that began working toward establishing Bangladesh as an Islamic state in the mid 1990s, which remains obscure and probably defunct today. Other organizations, such as Jama'atul Jihad, JMB, Jagrata Muslim Janata Bangladesh (JMJB), Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami (HUJI), Hizbut Tawhid, Tawhidi Janata, Islami Jubo Shangha, Islami Shangha, Al Falah A'am Unnayan Shanstha and Shahadat-e al Hiqma are believed to be part of the Al Mujahideen network. The JMB at its peak was reported to contain at least 100,000 members, and an alleged 2,000-man suicide brigade, few of whom actually exploded. JMB allegedly received financial assistance from individual donors in Kuwait, UAE, Bahrain, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Libya. Reports have claimed that funding of JMB by international NGOs like Kuwait based Society of the Revival of Islamic Heritage (RIHS) and Doulatul Kuwait, Saudi Arabia based Al Haramaine Islamic Institute and Rabita Al Alam Al Islami, Qatar Charitable Society and UAE-based Al Fuzaira and Khairul Ansar Al Khairia. The top leadership of JMB was captured in 2005 and hung in 2007, which pretty much shot their bolt.
(JMB), a well known terror group, were identified in the blast on October 2 2014.
India appears to be putting considerable energy against clearing old cases lately — or is it just that it takes this long to get cases to trial, and they’ve finally arrived?
Three suspected bad boyz were potted and injured while making kabooms and bombs at a rented residence in the Khagragarh area of the Bardhaman town in West Bengal.

Following Kausar’s sentencing, 31 out of the total 33 accused in the infamous case have been found guilty, and have subsequently been sentenced. The other two accused have escaped.

The preliminary charge sheet was filed in March 2015 by the NIA. It stated that there was a "conspiracy of JMB, a proscribed organization in Bangladesh, to overthrow the existing government in Bangladesh through violent mostly peaceful terrorist acts," reports the New Indian Express.

The investigation was initially taken over by the state CID, and was later transferred to the NIA within a couple of days.

#1 or is it just that it takes this long to get cases to trial

Correct. And lookit the sentence. 5 years in a room with a TV, fridge and cot. And a fine worth one playstation 5 [$400]. I think the NIA should send him to b'desh where the chances of him actually being punished are greater.
