Rapid Action Battalion Rab

Bangladesh police Sunday arrested a suspected terrorist from the border district of Ukhia, near camps where thousands of Rohingya Muslims fleeing a military crackdown in Myanmar have taken shelter.

Bangladesh security forces today arrested three suspects wanted over the murder of a Japanese farmer who was shot dead last month in an attack claimed by the Islamic State group.

Bangladesh's elite counter-terrorist force, the Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) on Friday arrested five members of the banned Hizb-ut-Tahrir from Dhaka, a day after the army said it had foiled a coup attempt. Sources said that one of the main plotters has been identified as Major Zia-ul-Haq who's linked to the extremist religious group.
