Crude bomb blast in front of Bangladesh Bank

Unidentified miscreants threw an unspecified number of crude bombs on the road next to the Bangladesh Bank in Motijheel in the capital on Thursday night.

Nobody was injured in the incident, said Sub-Inspector Debabrata, duty officer at Motijheel Police Station, around 12:45am on Friday.

The miscreants threw crude bombs from a speeding battery-run auto rickshaw, Debabrata told reporters, citing eyewitnesses.

Multiple teams of the police were working to identify and detain the miscreants, he added.
