Police have taken Bakul Sheikh into custody for further questioning. His background as a Terror Operative has drawn attention, and investigators are working to determine the origin of the bombs, their intended use, and whether any larger network is involved.
The exact nature of the explosives has not yet been disclosed publicly, but officials confirmed that all devices were neutralized without incident. The area around Sheikh’s residence was cordoned off during the bomb disposal operation to ensure the safety of residents.
