Convicted: Bangladeshi posing as migrant planned pan India terror strikes

The special court at Kolkata convicted Samad Mia originally from Bangladesh and sentenced him to 7 years in jail apart from slapping a fine of Rs 16,000. The case was first registered by the Special Task Force, Kolkata in 2017 following the arrest of five members of the ABT. Four of them were Bangaldeshi nationals while one hailed from India. The ABT is a proscribed terror group.

#3 To be fair, jpal, it’s an Indian prison, and Dron and his little playmates will no doubt drop by for tea from time to time, which will probably lead to reports of other arrests, even additional convictions for Mr. Mia himself. No barrel of mustache wax, though — that’s a Turkish thing.
