Members of the Ahmadiyya community are labelled as anti-Islamic by local Islamist groups, including Jamaat-e-Islami, Islami Oikyo Jote and Hefazat-e-Islam

Detectives on Monday afternoon arrested one of the attackers who hacked the imam of an Ahmadiyya mosque with bladed weapons in Mymensingh on the night of May 8.

Mymensigh Detective Branch Officer-in-Charge (OC) Imarat Gazi said attacker Jahirul Islam was arrested from Sylhet city.
