The team will ‘analyse and study’ the bombings at an Eid prayer gathering in Kishoreganj on Thursday and the terror siege at a Dhaka cafe last Friday, NDTV reports quoting officials.
 
A group of attackers hurled homemade bombs at a police team and attacked them with machetes, triggering an exchange of fire near a mass gathering for Eid prayers in Kishoreganj on Thursday morning.
 
Two policemen and a housewife died in the attack. A suspected attacker was also killed and another was captured with bullet wounds.
 
The attack comes days after terrorists shot and hacked to death 20 people, mostly foreigners, at a Dhaka cafe. 
 
Two policemen, who tried to enter the cafe in the initial hours of the siege, died from bombs hurled by the attackers.
 
After the cafe attack, a highly-placed source in the government said Bangladesh was taking the help of a friendly country in the investigation into the carnage.
 
Homed Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal has also said the country was taking the help of a friendly neighbouring country to control militancy.
