Two persons were reportedly killed and an estimated 100 persons sustained injuries in approximately 459 bomb explosions spread over 63 of Bangladesh’s 64 districts on August 17. According to Daily Star, all explosions occurred within a span of 30 minutes resulting in two civilian deaths, one in Chapainawabganj and the other at Savar. Explosions targeted Government establishments, primarily offices of the local district administrations and courts. As many as 28 explosions were reported from the capital Dhaka near the high-security Bangladesh Secretariat, Supreme Court complex, the Prime Minister's Office, Dhaka Judges Court, Dhaka University, Dhaka Sheraton Hotel, rail station, a location close to the United States embassy, police headquarters at Ramna, Hotel Sonargaon, Jatiya Press Club, New Market and the Bangladesh Bank. An explosion also occurred inside the Zia International Airport, barely two hours after Prime Minister Khaleda Zia left for China on a five-day official tour. The proscribed Islamist militant outfit, Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh, claimed responsibility for the blasts through leaflets left at the site of the explosions. Leaflets, in Bangla and Arabic, said, "We're the soldiers of Allah. We've taken up arms for the implementation of Allah's law the way Prophet, Sahabis and heroic Mujahideen have done for centuries." It further said, "It is time to implement Islamic law in Bangladesh. There is no future with man-made law." At least 45, people, including a leader of the outfit, in Satkhira have been arrested for their suspected involvement in the attacks. State Minister for Home Lutfozzaman Babar told journalists that the attacks were carried out by a well-organised group. "It is not an isolated incident and done in an organised way with an objective", he said. He also disclosed, "We had intelligence reports of some attacks between August 14 and 16, but we had no information of attacks on August 17."

Daily Star, quoting intelligence agencies, reported that the Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) along with a ‘powerful foreign ally’ was involved in the August 17 explosions. An unnamed official said, "We know it well that they have gradually gathered much strength, but are they strong enough to do plan and carry out such an organised attack totally on their own?" It also stated that security agencies have arrested 135 suspects during raids across the country and that four persons arrested in connection with the explosions in Dhaka, Satkhira and Kushtia have admitted to being JMB cadres. An unnamed investigator, however, claimed that they do not know the motive and the target of the attacks or the masterminds. "The only thing they are owning up is that they became involved in the act to establish an Islamic rule in the country," he said.

The Government is reported to have identified the Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) leader Abdur Rahman as a threat to the country and ordered security agencies to arrest him "at any cost." Quoting a source in the Rapid Action Battalion, Daily Star has reported that the Government is ready to pay a huge amount of money for information on the possible hideouts of Rahman, the alleged mastermind behind the serial blasts of August 17. "The evidence against Rahman and JMB is too overwhelming to be lulled into the false sense that they constitute no threat," said a source. "Now, we are not conducting the investigation from an anti-Awami League perspective," he added. Thus far, all the arrested JMB cadres have reportedly given identical confessions, saying that Rahman had orchestrated the attacks.

The JMB has threatened "direct action" against the Government and others if they failed to establish the Islamic law or try to repress the clerics and "intellectuals of Islam." "This is the third invitation to the Government of Bangladesh to ascertain the rule of Islam. After this announcement if the Government of Bangladesh fails to establish the Islamic law or try to arrest any member of Jama’tul Mujahideen Bangladesh, for their expectation of Islamic rule, or try to repress the clerics and intellectuals of Islam then Jama’atul Mujahideen Bangladesh, Insha-Allah, will take direct action against all associates," the JMB said in a statement put on a website. The statement was released on website Jihadunspun.com of West Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

New Age has reported that the Government has alerted security forces to prevent any plot for a fresh bomb attack in the country. The Government reportedly had information that a follow-up attack could be carried out by the same Islamist group to create a total disorder in the country and to divert the ongoing investigation process. "By analysing the post-blast threats by Jama’atul Mujahideen Bangladesh, which resorted to the August 17 blasts, and the statements of the arrested persons, it is suspected that another attack may be carried out at any part of the country any time," an unnamed official said.

The Government for the first time officially disclosed on August 26 that the banned Islamist militant organisation Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) was responsible for the August 17 serial bomb blasts across the country, according to Daily Star.

He also disclosed that the four arrested militants belonged to Satkhira and Kushtia districts. According to the home ministry, 155 people have been arrested thus far in connection with the countrywide bomb blasts.
