They reportedly detonated two cocktails consecutively with the intent to destabilize the state and create public panic. Upon sensing the arrival of the police, the individuals attempted to flee, and Mirajul Islam Miru, a member of the restricted organizations, was apprehended. The police filed a case at Tejgaon Police Station on that same day regarding the incident.
