Bangladeshi police kill militant suspected in cafe attack

Bangladeshi police on Saturday shot dead a suspected militant who they believe played a key role in an attack on a cafe in Dhaka in July in which 22 people, mostly foreigners, were killed, the national police chief said.

 

Three women were wounded and arrested in the shootout as police raided a hideout in the capital.

 

Five officers from the police counter-terrorism unit were also wounded when female militants attacked them with explosives and knives, senior police officer Sahabuddin Qureshi told reporters.
