Earlier in a continuing crackdown on Jihadi terrorists operating from mosques and madrasas in Assam, two imams were arrested by police for links with Islamic terror groups. The two Imams were arrested by the Goalpara Police in Assam as part of a broad anti-terror operation against the Ansarullah Bangla Team (ABT) and the Islamic terrorist group Al Qaeda Indian Subcontinent.
