Crude bomb blast again on DU campus

Two more crude bombs went off near the Dhaka University’s Madhur Canteen yesterday a day after four exploded at the same place.

Yesterday’s explosions occurred a little before 11:00am, leaving canteen waiter Hridoy with minor splinter wounds.

Police and DU authorities have yet to say who could be behind the incidents.

On Sunday, four crude bombs went off in the morning and evening at the same place while an unexploded one was found there on Thursday.

Visiting the spot, DU Proctor Prof AKM Golam Rabbani told reporters, “Some organisations, that exist in name only and do not have any ideology but have motives, are behind this.”

There are several conflicting organisations, he said, “Rather than confronting [the opponent] politically,  they want to make political gains by creating panic.”

Witnesses said they didn’t see anyone throwing the bombs.
