Bangladeshi authorities have blamed the JMB for the endless numbers of targeted killings and terror attacks in the country, including the one at an upmarket cafe in Gulshan on July 1, which led to the death of many foreigners and a few security personnel.

In July, the police arrested seven women JMB activists from Sirajganj and Tangail in the country with arms, bombs and jihadi literature.
