Two members of Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh were arrested from frontier Bahalkuri village in Bhurungamari thana yesterday.

Police said acting on a tip-off they raided the village and arrested Hafizur Rahman, 40, and Bitu, 42, from their respective houses early hours. Hafizur and Bitu were wanted in a case for having connection with the militant outfit.

Two arrested JMB men, close associates of alleged JMB chief Matin Mehedy, went into hiding following the arrest of Matin in the town last year.
