A recent survey by the security forces intelligence wings have revealed that there are 45 Jamathei Millathu Ibraheem (JMI) mosques throughout the country with a membership of about 139.

It was reported that even women are allowed to enter these mosques as the information received by the security divisions.

The first leader of this organisation was Nizam a Barrister in England and educated in a university there.

The information received further reveals that he had gone to Syria in 2012 and obtained a training after joining the ISIS organisation.

After returning to the country he had revisited Syria with 45 persons and had given training to them. However, he had been killed during this period.

The 45 have returned to the island after the training and now they have 139 members in this organisation as revealed.

They have been trained in making bombs and six who exploded suicide bombs are members of this organisation. (Dayaseeli Liyanage)
