Dhaka: Crude bombs exploded near the Gulshan residence of BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia on Thursday despite recent “security” measures around her house.
Four crude bombs exploded in succession about 30 yards away from her residence on road-70 in the evening around 6:45pm, witnesses said.
However, police said the location of the blasts was “far away” from the opposition chief’s house.
The blasts took place during a nationwide blockade of the BNP-led 18-party alliance. The agitation is expected to continue until January 5 polls.
The blasts took place near two sand-laden trucks, which were stationed on either side of the road leading away from Khaleda Zia’s house.
After the explosions, the trucks moved away immediately. Gulshan police Officer-in-Charge Rafiqul Islam said the bombs exploded near the American Club on road-70. “It is far away from Khaleda’s residence.”
The official denied comment on how the miscreants managed to flee the spot despite presence of a huge number of law enforcers.
