Police have recovered three crude bombs from a shopping bag beside the gate of a school near Savar Model Police Station in Dhaka’s Savar upazila.
The bombs, wrapped in red adhesive tape, were found inside a white shopping bag in front of Adhar Chandra High School at around 10pm tonight (9 November), barely 100 metres from the police station.
Mosharraf Hossain, inspector (investigation) of Savar Model Police Station, confirmed the matter to The Business Standard, saying police recovered the bag containing the crude bombs based on a tip-off.
“There were three crude bombs inside the bag. The police bomb disposal unit was informed. They arrived at the scene and safely disposed of the crude bombs,” he said.
Earlier today, two crude bombs exploded in front of Japan Garden City in Mohammadpur, while another crude bomb exploded near the Dhaka University Teachers-Student Centre (TSC), where police detained a suspect and recovered suspected crude bombs from a bag.
