2007 President Iajuddin Ahmed rejected the mercy petitions of six of the seven JMB militants who have been sentenced to death. The militants include JMB chief Abdur Rahman, second-in-command Siddiqul Islam alias Bangla Bhai, Majlish-e-Shura (the highest decision-making body) members Ataur Rahman Sunny, Khaled Saifullah and Abdul Awal, suicide bomber Iftekhar Al Mamun. The decision of the President clears the way for the execution of the militants.
