Here are some references;

“The current composition of government provides the backdrop for understanding the sudden resurrection of the Ahmadiyya issue in Bangladeshi politics. Recent events have rehabilitated in the political arena fundamentalist parties (namely the Jamaat-e-Islami and the Islamic Okye Jote) whose alliance with the party in power, the BNP, has given them more influence in the government. While their involvement in some of the attacks targeting the Ahmadiyya community is well documented, the Bangladeshi government has failed to take appropriate measures to bring the culprits to justice.”

This link describes Jamaat’s links with acts of terrorism and with terrorists in detail; tinyurl.com/9llztu

Some excerpts;

“The Jamaat-Bangladesh have also been involved in laundering money for a group linked to Pakistan’s Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), Al-Qaeda and the International Islamic Front (IIF). Islami Chhatra Shibir (ICS) the student wing of the Jamaat- Bangladesh is also believed to be involved with terrorist organisations in India and Bangladesh.”

[Please note Al-Qaida members in Pakistan were captured from houses of Jamaat-e-Islami members]

…and

“Jamaat-i-Islami has been involved in murder, terrorism, intimidation and bigotry from it’s direct participation in war crimes during the 1971 War of Liberation to it’s involvement in pursuing sectarian violence against the Ahmadi sect in Pakistan and Bangladesh . Recently the Jamaat has been threatening the lives of journalists in Bangladesh if they continue to report and uncover the Jamaat and Shibir’s ties to militancy.”

Then we have the following;

Perhaps the most visible and dramatic sign of the growth of extremism came three years ago. On 17 August 2005, between 11 and 11.30 am, 527 bombs were exploded in a massive attack on all but one of the country’s 64 districts. Such a carefully co-ordinated campaign of terror shocked the nation – but in many respects it was just the tip of the terror iceberg. Other terrorist incidents, including an attack on the Bangladeshi-born British High Commissioner, members of the judiciary and sporadic attacks on religious and ethnic minorities are further indicators of the presence of well-organised terrorist networks.

However, it is not simply the acts of violence that should cause concern. The Islamists’ ideological influence has spread to almost all parts of Bangladeshi society – not least the political arena.
The umbrella organisation is Jamaat-e-Islami, a radical group founded in India in 1941 by Mawlana Abul Ala Maududi. According to one analyst in Bangladesh, Jamaat’s objective is to create “a monolithic Islamic state, based on Shari’ah law, and declare jihad against Hindus, Buddhists, Christians and free-thinking Muslims.” Religious minorities – and Muslims regarded by Jamaat as heretical, such as the Ahmadiyya sect – are targeted for eviction, according to one human rights activist, “or at least to be made into a ‘non-existent’ element whose voice cannot be heard.” Jamaat’s tentacles now reach into major sectors, including banking, health care, education, business and non-profit organisations, and they aim to “destroy” the judicial system, according to one critic, including by “physically eliminating judges.”

Jamaat-e-Islami’s philosophy is based on two elements; lies and terrorism. They commit acts of terrorism often covertly to avoid blames and then totally deny any involvements. People in Pakistan are well aware of this.
