KOLKATA: Pakistani intelligence agency ISI has opened 75 new terrorist training camps in different Bangladeshi districts adjacent to the Indian states of West Bengal, Tripura and Assam.

What is more alarming is that ISI is being openly aided by the officers of Bangladesh Rifles’ (BDR) training command in this new venture.

Following a joint confidential probe, the undercover cops of the Intelligence Branch (IB) of West Bengal police, central Intelligence Bureau and Union external affairs ministry’s Subsidiary Intelligence Bureau (SIB), have recovered certain classified documents about the existence of the training camps operated jointly by ISI and BDR.

According to IB sources, the members of the Jamait-Ulama-Mujahideen (Jum) and Harkat-Ul-Jihadi-Islami (Huji) are being mainly trained in these newly set-up camps. The districts in Bangladesh where these training camps are scattered include Kurigram, Chittagong, Maimansingh, Sylhet and Rangapur, among others. The trainees, according to them, mainly include brainwashed local Indian youths from the three Indian states.
Incidentally, Jum activists are on the prime suspect-list involved in the recent blasts at Tripura’s capital Agartala.

The IB sources further said the sleuths had recovered certain classified documents that include the names of certain ISI and BSF officers supervising the training operations in these camps.

The sources said they had identified four ISI and BDR individuals who are supervising the camps on a rotational basis. They are Major Afzal Jinali, Captain M Hafizuddin, Mohammad Kuddusuddin and Jahangir Alam. While the first two are ISI officers and the second two are enlisted with BDR’s training command.
