Officials say these men joined a dangerous group that sends money to Islamic State fighters. The gang called itself GMRB and had been secretly operating across Malaysia for one whole year. Malaysian cops charged five suspects with serious crimes and locked up 16 more for extra questioning. The remaining arrestees face deportation back to their home country. Police discovered the terror cell had between 100 and 150 members working regular jobs at factories and construction sites. The group collected 500 ringgit membership fees from each person every year to fund their illegal activities. Members used WhatsApp and Telegram apps to recruit new fighters and spread violent messages online. Gang leaders made people swear loyalty oaths through social media before promoting them to higher positions. The network transferred stolen cash overseas using digital wallets and money transfer services. Malaysian authorities raided the group during three separate police operations between April and June. The first sweep caught six suspects in Selangor state and revealed the gang's secret structure. Fourteen more arrests happened during the second raid in Johor, including the main leader. Police finished destroying the network by catching another 16 people during the final operation. Investigators say the terrorists never planned attacks inside Malaysia but used the country as their money-making headquarters. Bangladesh officials promise to punish anyone proven guilty of supporting terrorism activities. [/QUOTE]
