(IraqiNews.com) Baghdad – A well placed source in the Ministry of Interior, Iraq, informed Iraqi News on Sunday that ISIS released a new video featuring the five terrorists involved in an cafe attack in Dhaka, Bangladesh, on July 1, 2016, in which 22 people, including an Indian girl, were killed.

“The five terrorists, in the video, lashed out at the Islamic scholars for resisting Muslims from joining ISIS,” the source said quoting a report published in Dhaka Tribune- a daily published from Bangladesh.

“The 15-minute video message was released last night- both in Bangla and Arabic- in which ISIS has called upon the jihadis to launch armed attacks on atheists, apostates and crusaders as revenge for the persecution of ISIS men in Iraq and Syria and elsewhere,” the source seeking anonymity further added.

It may be mentioned here that the video is believed to have been recorded sometime before the Gulshan attack and was released less than a month after the law enforcers killed the attack’s mastermind Tamim Ahmed Chowdhury or Sheikh Abu Ibrahim al-Hanif on August 27. The attackers – Nibras Islam, Rohan Imtiaz, Khairul Islam Payel, Shafiqul Islam Uzzal and Meer Saameh Mubasser – were killed in a commando operation on July 2.
