“Islam was not satisfied with the policy of Bangladesh’s ruling Awami League government. He revealed that he wanted to become Jihadi due to torture inflicted upon him by some Awami League members. He is a supporter of Bangladesh Nationalist Party,” the statement said.

Islam confessed that he knew that he would die but “will kill all ‘kafir’ (Non-believers) who do not respect Islam and the Holy Quran”.
