Rangpur Police Superintendent Hasif Aziz said, "We are almost sure that Salafi is a returnee from Afghan war. He used to train JMB militants at in the remote Teesta shoals. A large number of JMB militants received training there" He said police are not yet sure if Salafi had connection with al-Qaeda. He is being quizzed.
