A senior former Indian military intelligence official has said Bangladesh’s BNP and its ally Jamaat-e-Islami operated a clandestine process in supplying weapons to their separatist ULFA and other such outfits with Tarique Rahman being a central figure in the scam.
Former deputy director general of India’s Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) major general Gaganjit Singh in an exclusive interview with India Today visibly supplementing a recent comment by United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) leader Anup Chetia about the weapon smuggling to the region through Bangladesh soil.
Bangladesh police in Chattogram incidentally seized 10 truckloads of weapons destined to Assam region in 2004 while both the former intelligence official and the ULFA leader said the arms were destined to other rebel outfits as well alongside ULFA.dhngkfdvk
