Just as we said, they have cells and they have a kind of leadership structure in the cell,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI recall that one of the renowned Islamic scholars, sheikh Gumi, was at a time going into the forests to be with these people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think somebody like Gumi should be asked how he has contacts to reach these people.
