Brigadier General Syed Mohammad Motaher Hossain, Inspector General of Prisons, has revealed that over 300 individuals convicted in militancy-related cases have been released, though some were involved in serious crimes. “The government remains vigilant. Those involved in heinous activities have been dealt with, and several have been re-arrested,” he said. Adviser Mahfuz Alam added that while some have renounced militancy, like Jashim Uddin Rahmani who issued a public statement distancing himself from extremism, all released individuals remain under close surveillance. “The intelligence agencies and the state are extremely sensitive about their actions. Any wrongdoing will be met with swift government action,” he stated.
