Terrorist attack, hostage situation in Dhaka ; Analysis & Footage

If U don't believe me then ask Kobiraj, MBI or any honest BDeshis on the board to tell U whether polices have been mercilessly killing people or not. Or go to YouTube to see police firing on protesters or how mercilessly AWAMY polices are killing innocent, unarmed BNP, JI supporters. I have hundreds of videos to show to you but contents are too scary that would warrant my ban here.


I have brought Kashmir because AWAMYs are dalals and UR leaders have been taking such measure against Kashmiries.


India indeed ran the whole saga and intervened before March 71 but without its active military participant, PAK couldn't have been broken, IMO. A historian once stated that phony genocide for political capital would lead to real one. Seems like Almighty is teaching us by his way.

So if they follow your view point they are honest....and if they dont they are dishonest?

The "dishonest" ones will tell me they are the honest ones and you are being dishonest :P. See how it works?

I gather my impression from the actual people I know who have families in Bangladesh. It is a mixed complicated picture w.r.t BAL and BNP vicious political power play...nothing is black and white, no one is completely clean or completely filthy.

In the end the almighty knows as you said. So we can only watch and make the best understanding we can as independently as we can.
 
Guys let's not veer too off topic. Please stay with the subject of the thread.

Dhaka terrorist Nibras Islam was a Shraddha Kapoor fan, Facebook post shows

“Shraddha Kapoor, you beauty,” reads the exuberant caption, followed by “the moment when she held my hand…”

The Facebook post — a video clip of actress Shraddha Kapoor meeting and greeting a crowd of fans — would have read like any Bollywood enthusiast’s. The post marks the user’s status “feeling perfect”.


Innocuous, except that the Facebook account was of Nibras Islam, one of the terrorists killed in the Dhaka terror attacks.

Nibras’ Facebook post has gathered lot of attention, attesting as it does to a privileged upbringing, not very different from most young adults’ elsewhere in the world. His places of study include Monash University in Malaysia and North-south University in Dhaka; he attended an international school. There are selfies aplenty of Nibras and his group of friends, doing what young people do — driving around, hanging out at restaurants, enthusing about meeting a Bollywood star.

There are also other, chilling, pictures.

Nibras grinning at the camera while he holds a gun in his hands.

And then, from other feeds, a photo of his blood-streaked face, after he was shot down by security forces.

Reports have conjectured that Nibras was brainwashed and radicalised by an Islamic terror outfit; he followed one such group, Shami Witness, on Twitter.

Friends of Nibras told the media that he had been quiet and "not very religious".

Nibras is believed to have been missing since January, that was when his parents last saw him.

When they heard of him next, it was to find out that their son and five associates had been gunned down (the seventh was captured alive, said CNN) by the military, after they launched a 10-hour terror attack on a Dhaka café on Friday night, that left 20 dead.

The terrorists in the Dhaka attack have all been described as “well educated and from affluent families”. The Daily Star reported that the boys were also frequent visitors to the café (The Holey Artisan) in the exclusive suburb of Gulshan, that they laid siege to.

Militants behind Dhaka attack made no demands, have no links to IS: Minister



Dhaka: Seven militants who killed 20 people at a Dhaka restaurant made no demands and a person taken alive by police was only a suspect admitted in hospital, Bangladesh's home minister said on Sunday, rejecting Islamic State's claims of responsibility.

The gunmen stormed the upmarket restaurant in the diplomatic zone late on Friday and killed their mostly non-Muslim hostages, including nine Italians, seven Japanese and a citizen each from the United States and India.

Three of the six gunmen killed were under 22 years of age and had been missing for six months, Asaduzzaman Khan told Reuters in an interview at his Dhaka home.

Police and government officials have said the attackers were from well-off Bangladeshi families, a rarity and an indication that religious radicalisation was widening its scope.

Claiming responsibility, Islamic State warned citizens of "crusader countries" - that is, traditionally Christian western states - in a statement that they would not be safe "as long as their aircraft are killing Muslims".

It also posted pictures of five grinning fighters in front of a black flag who it said were involved in the attack, according to the SITE monitoring website.

But Khan said Islamic State was not involved, reiterating the government's position that home-grown militants were responsible for a spate of killings in the country over the past 18 months, including the latest one.

Asked about the photos, the minister pointed to a wall behind him and said: "If I fix a poster of IS here and stand with a machine gun, will it establish that IS is here?"

The minister has blamed Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh, which claims to represent Islamic State in Bangladesh but has no proven links to it.

Security experts believe the suspect, who was hospitalised with serious injuries, would be crucial to the investigation into the attack. Khan said it was not clear if he was involved.

Islamic State also claimed responsibility for two bombings overnight in Baghdad that killed nearly 120 people and wounded 200, most of them in a busy shopping area while residents celebrated the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan.

Reacting to the two attacks over the past three days, Pope Francis asked people attending noon prayer at the Vatican in Rome to pray for the victims and their families.

Late on Sunday in Bangladesh, hundreds of men, women and children held a candle light vigil near Dhaka’s Shaheed Minar (Martyr's Monument) to pay respect to those who lost their lives.

"We don't want this," Nasima, a textile industry worker, told Reuters Television. "Please stop this, stop this, stop this from our society, from our country, I want to live in peace."

As Dhaka limped back to normal life, experts questioned the delay in launching the offensive against the militants. More than 100 commandos stormed the restaurant nearly 10 hours after the siege began, under an operation code-named 'Thunderbolt'.

Analysts say that as Islamic State loses territory in Iraq and Syria and its finances get drained, it may be trying to build affiliates in countries such as Bangladesh for jihadists to launch attacks locally and cheaply.

Rich Families

Deputy Inspector General of Police Shahidur Rahman said on Sunday that authorities were investigating any connection between the attackers and transnational groups such as Islamic State or Al-Qaeda.

He said the militants were mostly educated and from well-off families, but declined to give any more details. On Saturday police released pictures of five dead militants, most of them wearing grey T-shirts.

National police chief Shahidul Hoque said all the gunmen were Bangladeshis. "Five of them were listed as militants and law enforcers made several drives to arrest them," he said.

Whoever was responsible, the attack marked a major escalation in violence by militants demanding Islamic rule in Bangladesh, whose 160 million people are mostly Muslim.

Previous attacks have mostly singled out individuals advocating a secular or liberal lifestyle, or religious minorities.

Reciting Quran Verse

Friday night's attack, during the final days of Ramadan, was more coordinated than the previous assaults.

Gunmen singled out foreigners as soon as they stormed through the doors of the restaurant popular with expatriates. They ordered all Bangladeshis to stand up before the killing began, a source briefed on the investigation said.

The Bangladeshis were later told to close their eyes and recite verses from the Koran. One militant cursed a Bangladeshi for eating with non-Muslims during Ramadan, the source said.

The Islamic State-affiliated Amaq news agency claimed in a report on Saturday that the militants identified and released Muslim patrons from the Dhaka restaurant, SITE said.

The victims also included at least three Bangladeshis or people of Bangladeshi descent.

The militants hacked most of their victims with machetes, leaving their bleeding bodies on the floor.

Militants behind Dhaka attack made no demands

I thought they did make 3 demands (some nut to be released, safe passage and acceptance their action was to establish Islam or something).

Has that now been thrown out the window?

There will be (as is the rule with incidents like this) rumors mixed in with facts. The official position of the govt. at this time is that no demands were made....and that is what the media is broadcasting right now...

When there were no demands were made - the administration should have realized that this was an obvious suicide mission for all assailants and should have acted much more swiftly to end the drama by creating diversions and could've saved a few more lives. Although most of the foreigners had already been killed by 11 PM, the Italians at their table by grenades hurled at them.

Such tragic circumstances and such senseless killing for no reason....

I know this is Monday morning quarterbacking - however it is expected that this incident will be heavily analyzed and newer elite commando units will be raised for the police with much more revamped triage and incident procedures for a quicker response.

You think BAL was behind the cafe attack?


Indirectly yes, after all, one of the terrorists is the son of a prominent BAL leader. They are trying to suppress that fact. These terrorists commit terrorism and the BAL regime hunts down the opposition for it, as a result these terrorists have become bolder because they know the regime will blame the opposition for their crimes. It's a kind of impunity they enjoy.
 
PM pays homage to Dhaka cafe attack victims

pm_homage.jpg

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina paid her homage to the victims of the Gulshan cafe attack at Army Stadium in Dhaka’s Banani area this morning.

On the second day of the national mourning over the incident, premier Hasina placed floral wreath at the casket of the victims around 10:00am.

Afterwards, it was opened to the relatives and general public for paying their tributes. It will be open for all until noon. Through the process, PM Hasina handed over the bodies to the relatives.

The caskets were placed in a raised platform which bored the flags of India, Italy, Bangladesh, Japan and the United States – commemorating the nationalities of the foreigners killed.

Braving a drizzle that was on since last night, relatives and friends of the victims and people from all walks of life poured in to pay their last tribute at scene. Envoys of India, Italy, US and Japan also paid their respects at the caskets.

The caskets of three Bangladeshis were taken to the Army Stadium. The rest, of foreign nationals, were kept at Combined Military Hospital, officials inside the military said.

Body of the Indian national was taken away by relatives this morning. Bodies of nine Italians were being handed over around noon. The bodies of seven Japanese will be handed over this evening.

Ambulances were kept stationed nearby to carry the caskets.

Twenty hostages, mostly foreign nationals, were killed when a group of militants stormed in with guns and swords in the Gulshan’s Holey Artisan Bakery on July 1.

After a nearly 12-hour long siege, the hostage crisis ended with a death toll of 28. Apart from the casualties of two police officers, law enforcers said six militants were killed.

Bangladesh is observing a two-day national mourning over the incident.

 
Terrorists were trained in Malaysia.
And they say there are around 8000 terrorists active in Bangladesh.
They claim to attack Jamuna Future Park next.
And gulshan attack was done after weapons were recovered from gulshan lake.
 
Why is Bangladesh going radical so quickly? When Mr. Modi reached the border accord with them, I sensed an improvement in relations and heaved a sigh of relief at having one less prickly neighbor to deal with. But really, the news out of there day by day is going worse and worse. I have met Bangladeshis abroad. I sense hostility from them, a suspicion, that I have not felt as strong when interacting with Pakistanis for instance. Why is that? Did we not help them in the past in their darkest hour? Then why are they going totally beserk off late? No offense to any Bangladeshi here, but these are genuine emotions of an Indian well wisher.

Sad to again be reminded that such young promising lives were snuffed out...and for what?

I wish I could have been there at that moment with some of my guns loaded up to deal with the psychos by "medicating" them with some lead.
 
Unprecedented terror in Bangladesh and post analysis

In post independent Bangladesh history in most horrific terrorist attack, 28 people including 20 foreign nationals killed. 13 hours after terror and hostage saga started, Bangladesh, armed forces commando operation killed terrorists and was able to rescue 13 victim alive. This brings back the memories that these same army commandos were prevented to save their own; during Peelkhana massacre of 58 army officers, in 2009. Awami League, Bangladesh current ruling party narrative about force behind terror in Bangladesh exposed to be an utter lie. Awami League and its secular partners all along pointed finger at Islam and political and non-political entities believes in Islamic idealism. Awami League adapted this anti Islam and Muslim narrative with active indian orchestration, infiltration and participation. As a result countless of innocent opposition leaders were abducted, tortured and killed. But since day light of July 2nd, 2016; ever since real identity of terrorists who brutally killed 28 people in Dhaka came into light, Indo-Awami narrative and motivation against Muslims and Islam completely exposed.

These are some points based on information available now. As time goes by we would know more to analyze and update further.

Identity of terrorist:

· 3 of the terrorist studied in english medium School and from elite class of society.

· Rohan Imtiaz, 1 of the terrorist is son of Awami League leader Imtiaz Khan Babul, from Dhaka City.

http://www.amardeshonline.com/pages/details/2016/07/03/342858#.V3i_6KKoOKU

· Nibrash Islam, another terrorist is too big fan of indian actress and was boasting about it in his facebook page. After touching hand of indian actress Sraddho Kapoor, Nibrash express his feeling - “Sraddho kapoor you beauty !! The moment when she holds my hand - Feeling Perfect.”

Indian victim father statement contradicts ISPR statement

After the commando operation, ISPR statement covered by all media said all victims were killed in the night of July 1st with sharp weapons. BUT (according to Times of India) father of lone indian victim, Tarishi Jain’s father said his daughter called and talked to him just 2 hours (around 6 AM on July 2nd ) before the commando operation.

Sometime before 6 am on Saturday when 19-year-old Tarishi Jain's phone went dead, her father Sanjiv Jain, who had been waiting outside Gulshan Cafe through most of the night after he got to know that heavily armed terrorists had stormed the restaurant in upscale Dhaka and were butchering guests, got a call.

Terrorist followed Japanese victims into the restaurant

According to one of the on duty security guard of fateful artisan bakery told Awami League supported news media BDnews24.com that two car carrying terrorist followed van carrying Japanese into the bakery. Terrorists got out of their vehicles and first shoot the driver of van carrying Japanese into the bakery. Soon after indiscriminate shoot out started.

http://www.bd-desh.net/newsdetail/detail/200/225305

Who benefits from fallout?

5 of the Japanese victims were working on much waited metro rail project in Bangladesh. Their brutal killing will put project future in jeopardy. Because Awami League with its politically motivated repression against opposition could not tackle REAL terror and protect Japanese citizens in such vital project. Only one country can see benefit from such fallout, and let it be for intelligent and informed mind to figure out the name of that bullying country in the region.

9 Italians are biggest from a single country killed in this heinous crime. So far information indicates Italians were working for different buying house which actively source garments from Bangladesh. EU is single biggest destination for more than 80% of Bangladeshi export earnings. One can expect there will be fallout from EU reaction as Germans already decided not to allow Bangladeshi air cargo. Again same regional bully would benefit from such negative impact on Bangladesh garments export.

Media blackout and mysterious 7th terrorist

Since early hour of 13 hours terrorist saga, Awami League regime threaten media stop broadcasting direct and live news. Awami chief Sheikh Hasina even threaten “I gave media license and I can take it away”. Media since then only broadcasted Awami vetted filtered news. With such political motivation and exposed lie, there is ZERO CREDIBILTY to anything coming out of Awami League, its govt organs government and Awami controlled media. One of the victim father statement clearly exposed Awami government lie about the account of killings.

When it was widely known and claimed about 6 terrorist team, Awami league and it’s government organs added mysterious 7th terror suspect. And guess what, all terrorists were killed in massive shoot out BUT this one mysterious terrorist was conveniently kept alive. Just so Awami league can establish its lie and become spokesperson of that alive terrorist to peddle its politically motivated narrative.

Awami League police already trying to hide identity of Awami League leader son who led the killing [Update Jul 03]

As suspected, police already replaced picture of lead terrorist Rohan Imtiaz, son of Awami league leader with picture of innocent victim of bakery cook/chef. That is why one of the picture of terrorist could not matched with Awami League police released picture.

Faraaz Hossain looks to part of terror group [Update from July 04, 2016]

Faraaz Ayaaz Hossain, who was glorified as hero, could be one of the member of terrorist team. By analyzing frame by frame video footage above, it was quite clear that Faraaz was guarding the door with weapon in his hand and working along the terror group. Also, released picture of dead terrorists on the ground (First from right, circled in blue) shown Faraaz was part of the group.

One needs to understand identity and background of Faraaz Hossain; his grandfather (Latifur Rahman) is owner of pro Awami League media group Daily Star, Prothom Alo newspaper. That is why Prothom Alo and Daily star news papers going out of their way to put propaganda spanner and using their media connection to glorify Faraaz. Interestingly enough, one need to consider the fact that Faraaz grandfather Latifur Rahman had allege connection to ULFA seeking independence from india, Latifur Rahman was working as proxy businessman for ULFA and laundered money for ULFA.

You are as usual a rondoo because nowhere in this thread or anywhere else I said anything like that which you have claimed in red (i paint it in red).
I simply asked you a simple question about number of Indian casualties and as debate got heated and you Indians claimed that all NON-Muslims were killed then I pointed out the name of brave Bangladeshi Muslim Faraz and also asked you if that was the case then why would those attackers let other Indians and other non-Muslims live.



I am not a Bangladeshi but I am afraid that this development may lead to many more even in case of strict action by the Bangladeshi government which in my view may lead to greater Indian involvement in agreement with BD government.

How that situation would affect BD only Bangladeshi members can explain

They seem reluctant to do so.
 
Brother; Religious Hatred,Religious Fanaticism, Envy , Jealousy all these part of Pakistani society and every Pakistani must play his/her role to remove this curse.ZERO TOLERANCE TOWARDS TERRORISM is NEEDED in EVERY COUNTRY

Bangladesh based JMB is having good social intercourse with the ISI-this JMB has brain washed these youths resulting in the terrible incident.
