No NSG team going to Dhaka, says MEA

Media reports said an NSG team was visiting Dhaka to study the July 1 Dhaka cafe terror attack.

New Delhi/Dhaka: The Ministry of External Affairs on Friday dismissed rumours of India sending a team of elite NSG bomb experts to Bangladesh to help investigate the two recent terror attacks in that country.

External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Vikas Swarup said that reports of a National Security Guards team travelling to Bangladesh are not true.

Media reports said an NSG team of experts in post-blast analysis and counter-terror operations was visiting Dhaka to study the July 1 Dhaka cafe terror attack in which 22 people were killed and also to analyse Thursday`s bombing and gunfire at an Eid congregation in Kishoreganj area in Bangladesh.

The Indian High Commission in Dhaka had also refuted the reports as untrue.
