Another Hindu youth has been murdered in Bangladesh. According to police and local sources, an auto driver named Sameer Das was beaten to death by miscreants. After killing Sameer Das, the miscreants ran away with his rickshaw.
Sameer’s body found soaked in blood
Sameer Kumar Das was earning his living by driving battery operated auto-rickshaw for a long time. When he did not return home on Sunday night (January 11, 2026), his family members started searching for him at various places in the area. He also informed the police about this. At around 2 o’clock in the night, local people saw Sameer’s blood-soaked body near Muhuri Bari in South Karimpur. On receiving information about this, the police recovered the body and sent it to Feni General Hospital.
Local police engaged in investigation of the case
Officer-in-charge (OC) of Daganbhuiyan police station Mohammad Faizul Azim said that the police are working to find out the actual cause of the incident. Whether this murder was done for the purpose of robbing an autorickshaw or there is some other reason behind it, all these aspects are being investigated. In this matter, a case has already been registered by the family of the deceased.
Atrocities against Hindus increased in Bangladesh
Bangladesh is going through a period of turmoil since the 2024 rebellion. The atrocities committed by fundamentalists against Hindus here have created concern across the world. Bangladesh Hindu Buddhist Christian Unity Council has expressed deep concern over the increasing attacks on minority communities across the country. The organization said that as the national elections in Bangladesh approach in February, communal violence is increasing at an alarming rate.
India expressed concern about the attacks on Hindus
Last week, India reacted strongly to the atrocities on Hindus under the interim government led by Mohammad Yunus. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said, ‘We are witnessing a worrying trend of repeated attacks by extremists on minorities as well as their homes and businesses. It is necessary to deal with such communal incidents immediately and strictly. Such neglect emboldens criminals and deepens the feeling of fear and insecurity among minorities.
