KUALA LUMPUR, April 15 (NNN-Bernama) — The Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) revealed that the radicalisation process which supporters of terrorist groups went through caused them to adopt a radical position of only either right or wrong of something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bukit Aman Special Branch principal assistant director (Counter Terrorism-E8) DCP Normah Ishak said they were brainwashed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHowever, it is normally a misconception. So these supporters are interested with terrorist propaganda, especially about jihad and martyrdom\u2026the broad concept of jihad has been narrowed down only to martyrdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThese group of people died of martyrdom by not settling their personal debts. There are some Malaysians who took personal loans for fund for them to migrate to Syria with no intention of repaying it,\u201d she told told Bernama recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She said this was despite the teachings of Islam as emphasised in the Quran that martyrdom becomes null and void for those who are in debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI sympathised with these unfortunate people (supporters of terrorist groups) \u2026 they have misguided perceptions,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She said the process of radicalisation could happen to anyone, such as the anti-vaccine group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On how supporters of terrorist groups are recruited, Normah said it is through the use of modern technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhile we are surfing the Internet, the recruiters (of terrorist groups) are also monitoring as well, and they create opportunities for interaction and they fall into the trap and become loyal followers,\u201d she said, adding that the method is commonly used by other criminals involved in love scams, macau scams, and other forms of fraud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She said besides the ‘online radicalisation through recruitment’, there are also those who become supporters of terrorist groups because of their obsession with certain issues such as stories on the hereafter and about Imam Mahadi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
