The Dhaka Times Desk The killers had come earlier in Bhakta Seze. The family of deceased Lutfar Rahman Farooq said this. But the police have not got any important information yet.
The family of deceased Lutfar Rahman Farooq gave the details of the day of the incident. They said Lutfar Rahman Farooq got angry as the killers whispered while performing Maghrib prayers. At that time, when he threatened, one of the killers got up without finishing the prayer. The operation started immediately after the prayer. Detectives have received this information from the relatives of those who survived the incident on Saturday.
The intelligence officials told the media that the murderers had come to that house several times before to kill Imam Mahdi's chief commander, Lutfar Rahman Farooq, along with his followers. However, their efforts failed before Saturday. It is believed that the previous target may have been missed due to the movement of many tourists. On the day of the incident, the killers came to the house at least an hour before the murder. After discussing religion with the alleged pir, the killers also prayed together. Later, after the mission, they escaped without incident.
Meanwhile, even in the last 3 days, the reason for the sensational 6 murders and the killers could not be ascertained by those involved in the investigation. Intelligence officials say that they are continuing to investigate three factors. Religious doctrine is given more importance in the investigation. Because Lutfar Rahman Farooq was opposed to conventional Islam. Some of his anti-religious statements have been shown on various TV channels for the past two days. He was the commander-in-chief of Iman Mahdi and said so in a TV interview. In that interview, he also admitted to being arrested 3 times.
Meanwhile, the investigation officials have started intelligence surveillance on at least 7 extremist groups in this murder incident. Abdullah Al Farooq, son of Lutfar Rahman Farooq, who survived fortunately, said, "We cannot suspect anyone specifically." But my father spoke against militancy and extremism. They can make this happen.
According to a newspaper's online news, Lutfar Rahman Farooq had a dispute over Islam with the top leader of Harkatul Jihad (Huji) Mufti Hannan (who received the death sentence) while in Dhaka Central Jail after his arrest in 2007. Lutfar Rahman's devotee Jatrabari raw material trader Azizur Rahman Babul said in the news that Lutfar Rahman was arrested by the police along with 9 devotees while he was in the sadhana lane of Gendaria in 2007. Among them was Azizur Rahman Babul. They were in Dhaka Central Jail for 4 months and 19 days. Huzi's top leader Mufti Hannan was living in the same place at that time. Babul also said that Mufti Hannan's religious doctrine and Lutfar Rahman's religious doctrine are different. Lutfar Rahman had a heated argument with Mufti Hannan about whose doctrine was right and who was wrong. However, after a few days Lutfar Rahman's good relationship with Mufti Hannan developed.
Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DB) Joint Commissioner Monirul Islam told reporters that three teams of the DB are investigating the murders keeping in mind three possible reasons - religious doctrine, family or personal conflict and property or robbery. The identity of the killers is yet to be ascertained. However, it has been initially confirmed that 8 people directly participated in the murder. He said that even though at least 10 people were detained and interrogated, including Shaheda, a devotee of deceased Lutfar Rahman and Sarwarul Islam Farooq alias Monir's father-in-law, no significant information was found. That is why they were released after interrogation. However, detectives are continuing their investigation. They hope to find out the real motive soon.
