Two homemade explosives detonated in the Karwan Bazar section of the capital without causing casualties, according to police reports. Confusion arose over jurisdictional authority after Kalabagan Police Station Officer-in-Charge Md Fazle Ashik stated the location fell under Tejgaon Police Station oversight, while Tejgaon Police Station Officer-in-Charge Mobarak Hossain claimed the reverse.
The incidents occurred amid a broader pattern of arson and bombing attacks attributed to the banned Awami League political organization since early December. Security officials believe these actions aim to disrupt legal proceedings involving party leader Sheikh Hasina, who faces trial alongside two co-defendants on crimes against humanity charges.
The International Crimes Tribunal plans to announce its initial ruling against Hasina, who was removed from power during a mass uprising. Authorities continue investigating the explosions as part of escalating attempts to interfere with the judicial process.
