Tokyo, July 5 (IBNS): Bodies of seven Japanese , who were killed in the terror attack that hit Bangladesh capital Dhaka on Friday, reached Tokyo, media reports said on Tuesday.

The Bangladeshi Army on Saturday said that 20 people were killed by heavily armed terrorists after being taken hostage at a restaurant in the capital city Dhaka on Friday evening.

The people were kept hostage for nearly 10 hours in Dhaka's upscale restaurant Gulshan. The stand-off between Army and terrorists came to a end on Saturday morning.
