Bombshell exposé: Blitz investigates notorious crime rackets run by Bangladeshi expats in Saudi Arabia |
For years, Bangladeshi migrant workers in Saudi Arabia were viewed as symbols of hard work and sacrifice – men and women who left their homeland to support their families back home. But behind this familiar narrative, a far darker and more shocking reality has been steadily taking shape.
Although the mainstream media has yet to report on the terrifying criminal networks run by Bangladeshi expatriates in Saudi Arabia, information circulating on social media reveals that Bangladeshis living there have formed abduction networks modeled after Somali pirates. In addition, some Bangladeshi expats are almost openly running illegal brothels and sex rackets inside the conservative Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. What our investigation has uncovered is one of the most disturbing exposés ever uncovered involving Bangladeshi expatriates abroad.
Additionally, according to our investigation – amidst last year’s regime change in Bangladesh, the rise of radical Islamists, and growing hostility toward India, a group named “Allah’s Brigade” has emerged in Saudi Arabia and several other Middle Eastern countries. Led by the militant organization Ansar al-Islam, this network consists of stranded Pakistanis and Rohingyas. According to intelligence sources, their primary targets will be Indian citizens working across Middle Eastern nations—especially non-Muslim Indians.
Bangladeshi kidnapping syndicates terrorize migrants in Saudi Arabia
Our investigations reveal that some Bangladeshi expatriates have formed organized kidnapping networks modeled after Somali pirates, abducting fellow migrants, torturing them, and extorting hefty ransoms through BKash, Nagad, and other cash-wallet systems. Some of these kidnapping rackets are even accepting payments through bank deposits in Bangladesh.
Over the past eleven months, more than 100 Bangladeshi migrants have fallen victim to these gangs. Those unable to pay ransom have been murdered in cold blood. At least seven Bangladeshi migrants working in Saudi Arabia have already been killed by these criminal groups.
Sources confirm that Saudi police have arrested several Bangladeshi kidnappers.........
