Bangladesh Terror Financing

In one of its biggest crackdown on illegal ticketing in the railways, the Railway Protection Force (RPF) has arrested a madrassa-educated, self-taught software developer from Jharkhand in a racket which has links to Pakistan, Bangladesh and Dubai with suspected involvement in terror financing, a senior official said on Tuesday.

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley today encouraged developing countries to emulate India's initiatives towards a less cash-based economy, saying excessive cash harms the poor, supports corruption and leads to terror activities.

Bangladeshi investigators probing the brazen terror attack on a cafe here say they have identified five businessmen who have allegedly financed a new Islamist group to carry out operations and are now trying to arrest them.

Four Bangladeshi workers held on suspicion of planning attacks linked to the ISIS in their own country were convicted of financing terrorism by a court in Singapore on Tuesday.
