DHAKA

The Indian High Commission in Bangladesh, along with the embassies of the US and the UK, was the target of Pakistan-based terror outfit LeT whose operatives were nabbed here recently, police said on Sunday.

Bangladesh police arrested three terror suspects, including two operatives of Lashkar-e-Toiba, and their HuJI accomplice from the south eastern port city of Chittagong this week, claiming to have foiled a plot to attack the US embassy.

"The information we gathered from interrogating the detained three (suspected) militants suggested that they also planned to attack the Indian high commission alongside the two other embassies," an official familiar with the interrogation told PTI preferring anonymity.

The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

the local operatives of LeT and their Bangladeshi partner from HuJI received instructions from LeT's leadership in Pakistan over telephone and they visited the Baridhara diplomatic enclave to chalk up the attack plans.
