A suspected militant was killed while an ex-army major's wife among three militants were arrested as Bangladesh law enforcers on Saturday night conducted a raid on a hideout of banned Islamist outfit Jamaatul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) in capital Dhaka, an official said.

Additional Deputy Commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Mohammad Yusuf Ali told Xinhua that "One JMB militant was killed during the special operation of the law enforcers."

He said the operation of Counter Terrorism Unit of Bangladesh Police also arrested three suspected militants including a female who is believed to be wife of an ex-army major.

The former Bangladesh Army Major Jahidul Islam, who was killed on Sept. 2 night in a police raid, is considered key trainer behind two major Bangladesh terror attacks in July this year.

Ali said five policemen were also wounded in the brief exchange of fire with the suspected militants.

Acting on information about presence of militants in Dhaka's Azimpur area, he said security forces launched there cordon-and-search operation there.

As the law enforcers zeroed in on their target, he said the militants fired at security forces that retaliated and in the ensuing exchange of fire in which the militant was dead.

Monirul Islam, counter terrorism unit chief of Bangladesh Police, had earlier said Jahidul Islam and his wife managed to flee a raid last month in which Tamim Chowdhury, the suspected mastermind of July 1 deadly Dhaka cafe attack, was killed.

Jahid was Chowdhury's "second-in-command", he said.

Islam said Jahid was the key JMB military trainer.
