Gollum Posted May 26, 2015 Author Posted May 26, 2015 Bangladesh bans radical Islamist group accused of killing atheist bloggers, writers - The Ministry of Home Affairs said the Ansarullah Bangla Team was formally banned in response to a request by police because it has threatened and killed bloggers, writers and other activists. - Junior Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal said the decision was made under the anti-terrorism law. - A police report said the group follows al-Qaida and has been active in Muslim-majority Bangladesh since 2008, but has widened its influence since 2013, when it allegedly killed blogger Ahmed Rajib Haider near his home in Dhaka. - Five suspected members of the group admitted involvement in the killing. The group's alleged chief, Mufti Jasim Uddin Rahmani, is in jail facing trial in Haider's death. - Since February, three other atheist bloggers who criticized radical Islam have been killed, including an American citizen of Bangladesh origin. - The group allegedly threatened last week to kill 10 people, including a university vice chancellor, a top adviser to Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and a ruling party lawmaker. - It has recruited students from mosques and from leading colleges and universities. - Bangladesh has previously banned other Islamist radical groups, including Jumatul Mujahedin Bangladesh, Harkatul Jihad Al Islami Bangladesh, Shahadat Al Hikmat, Harkatul Jihad Al Islam, and Jagroto Muslim Janata Bangladesh.

Sachinism Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 The group has been banned. What about those who admitted to the killings? Those who supported and encouraged these actions?
Gollum Posted May 31, 2015 Author Posted May 31, 2015 ‘You’ll be next’: Bangladeshi blogger gets death threat on Facebook - Ananya Azad was warned on a social networking site. A day after 'The Guardian' broke the story of how the 25-year-old Bangladeshi blogger was living a life of fear. - Speaking from Dhaka, Ananya — who is on a hit list containing the names of 84 atheist bloggers — said: "I am no stranger to death threats and bloodshed. My father, author Humayun Azad, was attacked on the streets. But what shocked me was the nature of threat that I got on Facebook. It addressed my father as 'Nastiker sardar'. It means the leader of atheists. It said being his son, I would meet a gruesome death. My throat would be slashed at Dhaka University's Raju Bhaskarjya! I feel lodging a police complaint is pointless. Eleven years have passed and the cops haven't been able to do anything about my father's assassins :((." - Today, Ananya wears a helmet even while walking the streets of Dhaka and moves around in a car with tinted glasses. Leaving Bangladesh is something he is considering after the threat. "Perhaps I need to rethink now. I've stopped writing my blog. I had begun writing a book that's halfway through. Next week, I am planning to go to India." - But Ananya is not the only blogger suffering. TOI traced another blogger who is now in hiding in Dhaka. On May 12, a gang of masked assailants had chopped blogger Ananta Bijay Das. Ever since Ananta's death, his fellow blogger Monir Hussain has gone into hiding. - Exiled Bangladeshi author Taslima Nasrin, who is now in New York, is trying to help him move out of his country. Monir has stopped writing his blogs. Speaking from an undisclosed location in Dhaka, he said: "For 15 days, I have been locked in a room. No television. No newspapers. I've deactivated my Facebook profile." - Monir has heard about Ananya's threat. "Ananta, I and four others had set up the Bigyan O Juktibadi Council since 2005. We also run the Jukti Patrika in Bangladesh. Threats have been coming for the past eight months. On the day Ananta died, I got a call around 9.20 am saying: 'Are you still sleeping? Ananta is lying in the hospital bed. Run...' Three minutes later, I got the same call again. I was numb. I rushed to the hospital to find Ananta dead," the 31-year-old Monir said. - The next day, Monir lost his job of a Bengali lecturer in a private college. "One day, I got a call from an unknown international number and was played a recording from the Holy Quran. I left my rented house in Sylhet to Dhaka. My neighbours later told me that two bikers, their faces covered with helmets, had repeatedly come looking for me. Today, I can't sleep without taking pills. I can almost hear Ananta say — 'they will kill anyone they can lay their hands on. That's how they want to make a name for the organization (Ansarullah Bangla Team)'," he added. Monir, like Ananya, doesn't want to inform the cops. "We believe cops leak most of the information to these extremists," Monir said. - However, Bangladeshi film-maker Shahriar Kabir says, "Seeking asylum in another country won't help. One has to ban Jamaat e Islami. There have been 13 attempts on my life. Yet, I haven't left Bangladesh. I carry a gun and don't move out of my house alone." This is gut wrenching, no words to describe how sad I feel about these rational minded secular bloggers in Islamic Bangladesh !!!! http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/south-asia/Youll-be-next-Bangladeshi-blogger-gets-death-threat-on-Facebook/articleshow/47477859.cms

asterix Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 RIP... Secular blogger. Hmmmm. His latest blog post questioned provision of Air-conditioning in Mosques, by the reports it seems... Why to take boond-panges? What's the need of these type of silly questions? Zabardasti trying to be secular in Bangladesh? Paid the price...
Gollum Posted August 7, 2015 Author Posted August 7, 2015 :(( Religion of peace claims yet another one.
Muloghonto Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 That's not my concern' date=' split it 100 times for all I care, but InshaAllah we will win the hearts and minds of the people.[/quote'] How will you win hearts and minds, when just about anyone who's taken a basic course in critical thinking (or is slightly smarter than average) can debunk Islam in 15 minutes ? As more people get educated, more people will leave Islam, as with any other religion. Islam is a dying religion in its very heartland of Arabia. The reason Islam is so violent is because when people don't have to live their lives by fear, they tend to figure out the inconsistencies and mythical claims of Islam.

I thought it was the fastest growing religion in the World. Moreover, what is most concerning is that educated professionals from developed countries seem to be heading and masterminding many militant organizations.
Gollum Posted August 7, 2015 Author Posted August 7, 2015 It seems the killing was very brutal. He was chopped to pieces and beheaded too. **** these Islamists, cancer of humanity. http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2015/08/07/niloy-neel-chowdhury-murdered-humanist-blogger-bangladesh_n_7955146.html?utm_hp_ref=tw
Gollum Posted August 7, 2015 Author Posted August 7, 2015 Bangladesh blogger killed by machete gang had asked for police protection Niloy Chakrabarti claimed officers ignored threats weeks before he was hacked to death in his Dhaka flat, the fourth such murder this year. Read more at..... http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/aug/07/machete-gang-kills-secular-bangladeshi-blogger-niloy-chakrabarti These sort of killings must be getting silent support from the majority of Bangaldeshi Muslims. One of the most intolerant nations of the world.
swatpulla Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 I am never sending my kids to a Muslim majority country. From what I hear, things were not this bad in 70s and 80s. The current Mullah brigade however seems to have taken the brainwash and hate to the next level. Pathetic.
Captain Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Religion of peace breeds the most violent followers. RIP Niloy.
gslv Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Day to day affair by adherents of religion of piece.
Autonomous Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Day to day affair by adherents of religion of piece. As per Islam: Killing of a single person is like Killing of whole humanity. I doubt about your knowledge over religion, Having said that its shameful and disgrace, People involved in voilence and terrorist activities in real do not nelong to islam nor they themself know the religion, Also its not correct for you guys to target the religion just because some people claim to do such stuff just on the name of religion,Just For instance I kill person X and tell out the world ive killed person X on orders of person Y but person Y never told me to do so.
asterix Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 ^ As per Islam this... As per Islam that.. People are fed up all these arguments... Don't here everyday "As per Bible this... As per Gita/Ramayan that..." There's something wrong with it...
