Can I buy a 535 from UK and use in another country?

I want to buy this phone (see the link bellow) from amazon UK and bring it to Bangladesh. Well the ad says it's 'UK sim free' does it mean it's operator unlocked but country locked? Btw, my local operator uses 800, 1900, 2100 mhz bandwidth. So can I use it here in Bangladesh.

There is no thing as country locked.
See here the spec for country variant UK ( on Microsoft UK) website.
Microsoft Lumia 535 - Specifications - Microsoft - UK

As you can see in the spec the UK variant supports the bands used in your country

But it looks like that for a UK Country Variant you can not set highest connection speed on 2G.

Thanks for the info. One more thing, the price on my given link says it's 67 pounds but on the microsoft UK page the price varies from 82-99 pounds depending on retailer. Even the price of Lumia 535 in Nokia store in Bangladesh is equivalent to 95 pounds. Should I be worried or happy about this?

Depends how you look at it. If you buy it in Bangladesh you pay 28 ? more but (possible) warranty issues should be easier.
Or in other words possible warranty issues will "cost" you 28 ? if you buy it in Bangladesh.
