ISIS terrorist group claimed responsibility for the cocktail attack on Dhaka police

The attack took place at around 8:30pm on Monday in front of a shopping complex on the south side of Gulistan underpass.

Two traffic policemen and one Ansar member were injured in the blast.

“I know about the matter. It is being investigated whether the attack was carried out by the IS or not. Investigation is being carried out by keeping everything under consideration,” said Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police Shibli Noman, when asked about the matter.

SITE Intelligence had previously informed about IS’s claim of responsibility of the 2016 terrorist attack on Holey Artisan Bakery in Gulshan.

The police have filed a case against some unidentified people in the Gulistan attack, said Noman.
