Miscreants threw a cracker targeting the office of Assistant High Commission of India in Chittagong this evening as an 84-hour hartal beginning today is underway.

Mainul Islam Bhuiya, officer-in-charge of Khulshi Police Station, told The Daily Star that a cracker hit the boundary wall of the office at Khulshi around 6:30pm.

Nobody was injured in the incident, reports our Chittagong correspondent.

Police were trying to identify the attackers, the police official said.

Immediately after the incident, the OC described it as a cocktail blast but later quoting a sub-inspector who visited the spot said it was just a cracker.
