Autopsy report: Dead youth was suicide bomber
2015-12-27
[Dhaka Tribune] An autopsy on the youth killed in Friday's suicide kaboom on the Ahmadiyya mosque in Rajshahi's Baghmara upazila confirmed that the dead was the carrier of the improvised bomb.

Meanwhile,

the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(IS) yesterday grabbed credit for the kaboom, SITE Intelligence Group said.

It quoted the Islamic State as saying that soldiers of the Caliphate in Bangladesh carried out the first suicide kaboom at the mosque during polytheist rituals.

Dr Enamul Haque, lecturer of Rajshahi Medical College Hospital's Forensic Department, yesterday said the boy was carrying the bomb against his left upper abdomen.

He said four splinters were recovered from the liver of the jacket wallah. "The man received severe wounds on the left part of his body as he was carrying the bomb on that side."

Several sources in the police said they suspected involvement of banned myrmidon outfit Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh
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 even 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) in the kaboom as the locality is known as a den and breeding ground for JMB cadres.

A high official of an intelligence agency requesting not to be named told the Dhaka Tribune that they are mainly focusing their investigation on JMB involvement.

An eyewitness said just a couple of moments before the blast a cycle of violence whizzed past the mosque. Law enforcers suspected the attackers had planned to escape with the motorbike but the bomb accidentally went off before the time.

Motiar Rahman, officer-in-charge of Baghmara cop shoppe, said police are patrolling the area.

Earlier, on Friday around 1:20pm during the Jumma prayer, a bomb went kaboom! at Ahmadiyya mosque leaving a youth dead on the spot and several others injured badly.

Of the injured, condition of Moyez Uddin, 40, Sayeb Ali, 36, and Nayon, 12, were stated to be critical. They are now undergoing treatment at RMCH.

Injured Moyez Uddin told the Dhaka Tribune that they saw a boy enter the mosque just after the Jumma prayer call. "He said he was from Mohonpur and studied in Rajshahi Polytechnique Institute and he came to visit a friend in the area."
