Meanwhile, the question has also come up as to why the KNF gave shelter to a different religious group. As per available information, increasing manpower or strength was more important than financial matters. Parbatya Chattagram Jan Samiti Samiti (JSS) is the main opponent of KNF which came into limelight early last year. There were skirmishes between them.
Upon questioning recently arrested KNF members, members of the law enforcement agency learned that KNF chief Nathan Baum thought that if the religious extremist group was provided with shelter, they would end up with the KNF on their own. KNF) will fight with the opponents. Jamatul Ansar member Mohammad Abdur Rahman alias Zaheer was killed in June 2022 while he was fighting on the side of KNF. Noakhali resident Nizam Uddin alias Hiron, who along with Zaheer had eloped from home to go to the terrorist base in the hills, was arrested recently. The law enforcement agency came to know about Zaheer’s death from Nizam Uddin.
The militants who have gone to the hills have been given different names by the KNF. That’s in the style of Baum. There he was called by this name. For example, the infamous Shibbir Ahmed, who was seen in the training video, is named ‘Karche’. Milan Talukdar is called ‘Lamjol’. Imran is called ‘satol’. In this way 55 people have received training in three batches, all named Bom. It is believed to be a strategy to use militants to fight the opponents in the hills.
