IB warns of terror threat from B’desh ahead of I-Day

NEW DELHI, AUG 7 (IANS)

Ahead of Independence Day, the Intelligence Bureau has issued a warning that some terror groups may try and strike in various parts of the country. However, this time around, the highest threat perception is from Bangladesh, and terror could make its way through the eastern border, the Intelligence Bureau has warned.
The security agencies of North Eastern states and West Bengal have been advised to remain on high alert as terror outfits in Bangladesh may try and carry out a strike on Independence Day or ahead of it. Many terror groups have revived themselves owing to lawlessness and a Jamaat-e-Islami-backed regime. This has led to a lot of meddling by Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), which has sent in its officers to train terrorists and advise terror groups.
