CTTC arrested them for allegedly instigating youths, including the seven in Cumilla who have recently went missing after leaving their homes in the name of performing "hijrat", to join militancy. They were allegedly collecting members for banned militant outfit Ansar al-Islam, arranging military training for them, helping them to perform hijrat.
