According to Daily Star, religious outfits encouraged apparently by the ban on Ahmadiyya publications have intensified aggression against the religious minority sect in a bid to force the Government to declare the Ahmadiyyas as 'non-Muslim'. The movement against Ahmadiyyas is being spearheaded by a constituent of the ruling four-party alliance, the Islami Oikya Jote (IOJ). These religious outifts are demanding a ban on Islamic terms for Ahmadiyyas and their burial at Muslim graveyards and removal of the members of the sect from government offices. The Ahmadiyya leaders have accused the Government of succumbing to pressure of 'fanatics'. Abdul Awal of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat Bangladesh reportedly said that "the government caved in to the bigots, making them stronger…we have seen an ugly display of Talibanism over the last 11 months."

A series of grenade attacks on Awami League (AL) leader Sheikh Hasina's rally on Bangabandhu Avenue in Dhaka left at least 16 people killed and 200 including senior AL leaders Abdur Razzak, Amir Hossain Amu, Suranjit Sengupta, Ivy Rahman and Kazi Zafarullah critically injured. Hasina, who was the apparent target of the attacks carried out from buildings in front of the AL headquarters, escaped unhurt as activists formed a human shield to protect their leader aboard a truck. One of her personal security staff, Mahbub Alam, who stood close by her, died. The unknown assailants fired seven bullets at the bulletproof sports utility vehicle (SUV) that Hasina boarded immediately after the blasts. The attacks started at 5:23pm just when Hasina wrapped up a rally of around 25,000 supporters protesting the recent Sylhet blasts with a call 'to end the rule of the government that inspires bomb attacks'. Later at 6:27pm, another grenade reportedly exploded in the alleyway opposite the AL office and an army team safely detonated two grenades -- one in front of the AL headquarters and another in Osmani Udyan -- after finding it at Rony Sari Bitan in the Railway Supermarket.
