Bangladesh TV stations reported that the attackers entered the holey artisan bakery in Dhaka’s Gulshan area around 9:20 p.m. Friday and were holding customers and staff hostage.
The TV reports said the identities of the attackers were not immediately known.
The reports say a huge contingent of security guards cordoned off the area and the restaurant as they traded gunfire with the attackers who set off explosions.
Jamuna television reported, quoting a kitchen staff worker at the restaurant who escaped the attack, said that the gunmen chanted ``Allah Akbar'' (god is great) as they launched the attack.
