Colombo, April 27 (newsin.asia): Sri Lankan President Maithripala Sirisena has on Saturday taken steps to ban the National Thawheed Jammath (NTJ) and Jamathei Millathu Ibraheem (JMI) in Sri Lanka as per powers vested in him under Emergency Regulations No. 01 of 2019.

The President’s Media Division said that “all activities of those organizations as well as their property will be seized by the government.”

“Steps are been taken to ban other extremist organizations operating in Sri Lanka, under Emergency Regulations,” the release said.

Jamathei Millathu Ibraheem 

The Jamathei Millathu Ibraheem (JMI) which has been banned along with the National Thaeheed Jamaath (NTJ) by the Sri Lankan President Maithripla Sirisena on Saturday, is but an adjunct of the NTJ and was used by the latter as and when required by the NTJ leader Zahran Hashim, who blew himself up in a suicide attack on Shangri-La hotel on April 21, informed sources in Kathankudi said.

According to H.M.Ameer, head of the Abdul Jawad Ali Waliullah Trust in Kathankudi,  the JMI is based in Kathankudi, the all-Muslim town in Eastern Sri Lanka. Zaran too was based in Kathankudi before he disappeared following the December 2018 attacks on Buddha statues in Mawanella in the Central Province.

“The JMI was used by Zahran as when he needed a cover for his activities. We suspect that the attacks on Buddhist statues were conducted by the JMI. The JMI has been preaching against idol worship,” Ameer said.

He likened the JMI to the “Elara” force during the war between the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) and Sri Lankan forces in North Sri Lanka.

“During peace talks and ceasefires the LTTE would attack government forces but when questioned would deny that it had broken the ceasefire and would put the blame on the shadowy Elara force, “ Ameer explained.

The JMI has been a shadowy organization and therefore very little is known about it, Ameer added.

Informed sources said that the JMI of Sri Lanka should not be confused with the Jamaat ul Mujahideen India (JMI). The Indian JMI had nothing to do with Zahran and his Jamathei Millathu Ibraheem (JMI) in Sri Lanka.

It is also wrong and misleading to say that Zahran was radicalized in India. He was more radical than any other individual or outfit.

A total of 15 bodies including women children have been recovered from the site of explosions and a gun battle at Sainthamaruthu, Kalmunai in the  Eastern Province on Friday night .

Suicide bomb making materials found in Sainthamarudu

Reports confirmed that the troops on intelligence tip-off given by the Police were proceeding towards to check a safe house of suspected terrorists when they triggered three explosions and began firing towards the troops.

Troops retaliated and raided the safe house where a large cache of explosives had been stored, the Sri Lanka Army said.

One civilian fell victim and died in the crossfire and 3 or 4 persons were reportedly injured. At the same time, two of those gunmen with one weapon, suspected to be from an Islamic terrorist organization, were killed during the retaliation, it said.

Reports had claimed that there could be one or more suicide bomber inside the safe house either killed or in hiding.

However, troops were unable to storm the place in the dark and due to heavy concentration of civilians’ houses around, according to Major General Aruna Jayasekara, Commander, Security Forces (East).

At the same time, troops at Nintavur detected a brand new unregistered van, suspected to be belonging to the National Towheed Jamat’s leader, Zahran’s brother-in-law, named Niyas.

Following detection of two ID cards, initial reports confirmed the said van had been bought in Akkaraipattu on cash on 19 April.

At the moment, Army troops have cordoned the entire area and are conducting clearing operations with the support of sister services, Special Task Force (STF) and Policemen in affected areas.

ISIS Flags Discovered

Meanwhile, during another search operation carried out on Friday  in Samanthurai area, Army troops recovered ISIS flags, literature and some other objects from a place, said to be the terrorist organization’s place for oath-taking.

According to the Military Spokesman, Brigadier Sumith Atapattu, combined troops recovered explosives, detonators, gelignite sticks, acid bottles, det cords, ISIS flags and backdrop, suicide kits, military uniforms, etc from a safe house in Samanthurai area.

Those dead gunmen are yet to be identified and clearing operations are continuing.
