Among the deceased, two, including a child, died due to bomb blasts. Additionally, over 20 people, including sanitation workers, were injured by the bomb explosions.

ASP Shihab Karim further said that a few bomb makers from the Geneva Camp itself were responsible for making crude bombs and cocktail bombs, with Sohel being one of the main figures. 

Several cases, including murder and drug-related charges, have been filed against him at the Mohammadpur police station.
