Kolkata, Mar 16 (IBNS): The National Investigation Agency (NIA) and Kolkata Police's Special Task Force (STF) on Tuesday midnight booked two suspected Jamatul Mujahidin Bangladesh (JMB) members in Kolkata, sources said on Wednesday.
According to reports, the joint team of NIA and STF conducted raid at Metiabruz area in Kolkata and held two suspects- Enamul Mollah and Habibul Haque- from a house.
"We have arrested two JMB members from Kolkata, who were reportedly recruited by Yousuf Gazi, the prime accused in the Khagragarh blast case in Burdwan district. We are interrogating them to know about their involvement with this Bangladeshi terror group and to find out other JMB members, who are operating the module from this state," one senior official of Kolkata Police told IBNS.
