Two alleged members of the banned Awami League were handed over to police by activists of BNP's student wing Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD) on Monday following another round of crude bomb explosions in the Teacher-Student Centre (TSC) area of Dhaka University (DU).

The detainees are Jabir Salehin Dipu, 27, hailing from Bagherhat and Abdullah Al Jobayer, 26, from Pabna, Officer-in-Charge (OC) of Shahbagh Police Station Moniruzzaman confirmed.

He said the duo were activists of the banned AL.

The explosion took place around 6:40pm, witnesses said.

Immediately after the blast, activists of the DU unit of JCD detained the two suspects and handed them over to police.

"As soon as the crude bomb exploded with a loud bang at the TSC, we rushed to the spot and detained one person from the scene and another near the gate adjacent to Suhrawardy Udyan. We then took them to Shahbagh Police Station," a JCD activist said.

Police found a bag containing more crude bombs at the scene, with the area cordoned off.

At least seven crude bombs exploded at different locations on the DU campus on Sunday. JCD activists also detained three people and handed them over to police in connection with those incidents.

Earlier in the day, a bus was set on fire in the capital's Farm Gate area by unidentified persons.
