Multiple crude bombs exploded near district and sessions judge’s residence beside Shakuni Lake in Madaripur town on Tuesday morning.
Upon receiving the news, members of law enforcement agencies inspected the scene.
The explosions, which occurred a few hours before a scheduled event, have raised concerns in the area.
A rally of the National Citizen Party (NCP) is scheduled for 4pm on Tuesday at Muktamancha, directly opposite the judge’s residence.
Top party leaders, including Convener Nahid Islam, Chief Organiser Sarjis Alam and Hasnat Abdullah, are expected to attend.
Police are investigating whether the explosions are linked to the NCP rally.
Madaripur Sadar Police Station Officer-in-charge Abul Kalam Azad said the incident might have stemmed from internal disputes over the formation of party committees.
He added that the explosions could also have been intended to create fear ahead of the rally.
OC Abul added that efforts are underway to investigate the incident and identify those involved.
