On January 30, the United States Assistant Secretary of State for South Asia, Christina Rocca, asked the Bangladesh Government for full access to all evidence and witnesses of the January 27 Habiganj grenade attack if they are to send the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for probing the attack. Rocca reportedly called Foreign Minister M Morshed Khan to explain her Government's position regarding clear terms of reference as she said inaccessibility to evidence had rendered ineffective the FBI's help in the August 21 Dhaka grenade attack investigation. On January 29, State Minister for Home Affairs, Lutfozzaman Babar, said the Government would want the FBI to remain with the local investigators until or unless an effective investigation is finished.
