Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) yesterday threatened to bomb police stations and check-points in the city.
In a fax to the Rajshahi Metropolitan Police (RMP) headquarters at around 6:00pm, the banned Islamist outfit said it would launch attacks in retaliation for arrest and harassment of its cadres.
Confirming the threat from the militants, Mahfujur Rahman, assistant commissioner of RMP Detective Branch (DB), told reporters that they have beefed up security at police stations and other installations in the city.
The fax said JMB has enough explosives to bomb the police stations.
Addressed to Rapid Action Battalion (Rab), superintendent of police, DB and National Security Intelligence, the fax did not carry any signature.
It said the outfit has targeted police stations since the law enforcers are "creating obstacles to its operation".
Earlier on September 7, another fax purportedly sent by JMB threatened to bomb the residences and offices of caretaker government's advisers and police officials.
