According to sources in Counter Terrorism and Transnational Crime (CTTC) officials, Islamic State (IS)-inspired militant outfit Neo-Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) has recently formed a 20-member committee, reports The Daily Star on July 6. The committee members, all from the ‘military wing’ of the outfit, have named the committee ‘Islamic State of Bengal Province’. It also planned to train the members in Pakistan on making firearms and set up a factory in Bangladesh after collecting a firearm from Indian Kashmir as sample. The Neo-JMB's improvised explosive device (IED) expert, Sabbir Hossain (26), also the ‘military wing commander’ of the outfit's Mymensingh region unit, formed the committee. CTTC officials claimed to have collected the information about Sabbir, also known as Bamchi Barak alias Major Bamchi alias Abu Hafs al Bengali, by tracking the Neo-JMB's strategy.
