The Islamic State (IS) has claimed responsibility of the suicide attack at an Ahmadiyya Muslim mosque in Rajshahi, says US-based SITE Intelligence Group.

The Daily Star, however, could not verify the claim independently.

The attack during Juma prayer on Friday left the attacker dead, confirms autopsy report.

No one was arrested so far in connection with the attack that also left three people injured.
