‘What is happening in Bangladesh is barbaric…’
A few days ago, Bollywood actress Jhanvi Kapoor had also expressed her concern on this issue. He shared a note in the stories section of his Instagram. He wrote, ‘What is happening in Bangladesh is barbaric. This is genocide and not an isolated incident. If you don’t know about inhuman mob lynching, read about it, watch videos, ask questions, and if all this doesn’t make you angry, then this is exactly the kind of hypocrisy that will destroy us before we know it. Apart from this, South and Bollywood actress Kajal Aggarwal and veteran actress Jaya Prada had also expressed their concern in this matter.

what is the whole matter
On the night of 18 December, 27-year-old Dipu Chandra Das, who worked in a cloth factory in Yaman Singh, Dhaka, was killed by an angry mob. Since then, the situation there has become quite tense and people have started a movement against the brutal killing of Hindus in India. Now, along with common people, celebs have also started raising questions on the atrocities being committed against minorities for a long time.

Bangladesh police have announced a reward for information about the attackers who set fire to the house of a Hindu family near the south-eastern port city of Chittagong. Mob lynching has emerged as a major crisis in the changing political scenario of Bangladesh.

Ittefaq newspaper reported in its report on Thursday (December 25, 2025) that Chittagong Range Police Chief Ahsan Habib offered the reward while visiting the burnt house of Sukh Shil and Anil Shil in Rawajan area on the outskirts of the city on Wednesday (December 24, 2025) night. However, he did not give information about the prize money.

According to the report, on the night of Tuesday (December 23, 2025), unknown miscreants set the house on fire, but the people living in the house narrowly escaped. Family members said they woke up early in the morning feeling the heat of the fire, but were initially unable to get out as the doors were locked from outside. Eight members of both the families were able to get out of the burning house by cutting the tin sheets and bamboo fence.

Houses of seven Hindu families burnt to ashes in Raojan

According to the report of Business Standard, last week several incidents of arson targeting the houses of Hindu families took place in the same area. Police said five suspects have been arrested and a special security team has been formed to ensure security in the area. According to the report, in the last five days, houses of seven Hindu families were burnt in three different areas of Raojan.

Five suspects arrested in the raid – Sajidul Islam

Raojan police station in-charge Sajidul Islam said that so far five suspects have been arrested in the police raid and the search for others is going on. The police held a meeting with local influential people to ensure inter-religious harmony and maintain social vigilance against perpetrators of such heinous crimes. Last week, 28-year-old Hindu youth Dipu Chandra Das was beaten to death by a mob by hanging him from a tree and set on fire on charges of blasphemy in Mymensingh area.

Dipu Chandra Das, a 27-year-old Hindu youth working in a garment factory in Bangladesh’s Mymensingh district, was beaten to death by a mob on Thursday (December 16) over alleged blasphemy charges. If the factory management had informed the police in time, Deepu’s life could have been saved. But instead factory supervisors forced him to resign, threw him out of the workplace and handed him over to a radical Islamic mob, who brutally murdered him, hanged his body and then set it on fire.

Alleged blasphemy allegations, no concrete evidence
According to Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) and police officials, there is no concrete confirmation yet of the blasphemy allegations leveled against Dipu Chandra Das. Officials said that it was not clear what Deepu said or did that led to this controversy.

Suspicious role of factory officials in murder
Investigation has revealed that the floor in-charge and quality in-charge of the factory handed over Dipu to the mob instead of handing him over to the police. After reviewing CCTV footage and videos, 12 people have been arrested so far, including factory officials and employees.

Not sudden, signs of a planned murder
Investigators say that this murder was not the result of any sudden violence, but there are clear signs of pre-planning. Forced resignation, delay in informing the police and ultimately handing over Deepu to the mob – all these steps point to a well-planned chain.

Taslima Nasreen raised questions
Exiled Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen raised questions about this murder on social media platform He asked who would bring the culprits of this heinous murder to justice.

A mountain of sorrow fell on the family
Dipu Chandra Das was married three years ago. His family consists of his wife and one and a half year old innocent child, who is now left without a father. RAB-14 Commander Naeemul Hasan told in the press conference that the violence started inside the factory at around 4 o’clock. He said, ‘The floor in-charge of the factory forced Dipu to resign and handed him over to the angry mob. We have arrested two factory officials because they did not ensure the safety of Deepu.

Crowd increased at the time of shift change
According to the report of Daily Star, a large number of workers gathered outside the factory at the time of shift change. Local people also reached there after the news spread. At around 8:45 pm, the mob broke the factory gate and dragged Deepu out of the security room. After being thrown out of the factory, local people also took part in the attack. Dipu was murdered on the spot, his body was hanged on the Dhaka-Mymensingh Highway and then set on fire.

Late information given to police
Police officials said that the situation kept worsening for several hours, but the factory management did not inform on time. Industrial Police SP MD Farhad Hussain Khan said, ‘If the call had come on time, Deepu’s life could have been saved.’

Traffic jam becomes a big hindrance

The SP said that at the time of the incident, there was a traffic jam of about 10 kilometers long, due to which there was a huge delay in the police reaching the spot. By the time the police arrived, the crowd had taken the body towards the highway. The factory management has denied negligence. Senior manager Saqib Mahmood claimed that there was no evidence for the allegations and a ‘fake resignation’ was obtained to defuse the situation. However, investigating agencies say that Deepu was deliberately handed over to the mob.

The Foreign Ministry of Bangladesh has expressed displeasure over the protests and sloganeering outside the residence of the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi on Saturday (December 20, 2025). The Bangladeshi Foreign Ministry issued a statement saying that on December 20, 2025, some people reached the residence of the Bangladesh High Commission and vandalized the barricades.

This incident, which came to light from Nawada district of Bihar, not only raises questions on law and order, but also shows a scary picture of hatred spreading within the society. In the mob lynching that took place on December 5 in Bhatta village of Roh block, 35-year-old Athar Hussain, a resident of Nalanda district, was brutally beaten by the mob. He died during treatment at Bihar Sharif Sadar Hospital on the night of 12 December. The entire area is shocked by the death of Athar and a mountain of sorrow has fallen on the family.

Were selling clothes in this area for 20 years

Athar Hussain was supporting his family by selling clothes in Roh and surrounding areas for the last 20 years. Almost everyone in the area knew him. His in-laws’ house was also in Marui village of this area. Despite this, the manner in which he was brutally treated has shocked every sensitive person.

The mood of the crowd changed after asking the name and religion.

Athar Hussain had told before his death that he was returning from Dumri village on the evening of 5th December. It was dark when 6-7 drunk youths surrounded him near Bhatta village. First the home address was asked, then the name.

As soon as Athar revealed his name as “Mohammed Athar Hussain”, the mood of the crowd changed. They were forcibly taken off the bicycle, looted of their money and dragged into a room with their hands and legs tied.

Athar had told before his death that the fighting did not stop here. The pants were opened and the private parts were searched, so that it could be confirmed that he was a Muslim. After this, petrol was poured on the body and an iron rod was heated and fired on the hands, feet, fingers and many other parts of the body. Fingers were broken and the sole of the hand was badly burnt. Even an attempt was made to cut off the ear with a file. During this, 10-15 people kept beating him with sticks and rods.

On the night of 7th December, lying in Nawada Sadar Hospital, Athar narrated his entire ordeal in a trembling voice. He had said, “Every child knows me, yet this was done to me.” In the video, he tells how after giving his name, he was thrown off the bicycle, robbed of money and then locked in a room and burnt with petrol. There was pain in his eyes, but hope for justice was visible in his voice.

Body broken during treatment, life lost due to death

The police admitted Athar to the hospital in critical condition. First he was referred to Nawada, then to Bihar Sharif, but the wounds were so deep that the body started responding. Athar died during treatment on the night of 12 December. The postmortem was conducted at Nalanda Sadar Hospital under the supervision of the forensic team and magistrate.

Mohammad Saqib, brother of the deceased, says that Athar was a hard-working person and had no enmity with anyone. He was killed just because of his name and religion. The family has demanded the harshest punishment for the accused.

Roh police station in-charge Ranjan Kumar said that an FIR has been registered regarding the incident of December 5. Till now 4 accused Sonu Kumar, Ranjan Kumar, Sachin Kumar and Shri Kumar have been arrested. The search for other absconding accused is going on. Police say that the matter is being investigated seriously.

Increasing incidents of mob lynching in Nawada

This incident is not an isolated incident. In 2025 itself, many incidents of mob lynching have come to light in Nawada. In February, two youths were beaten up on suspicion of theft, in which one died, and in August, an elderly couple was attacked on suspicion of witchcraft, in which the husband lost his life. Such cases have raised big questions on law and order and social thinking in Nawada.

Athar Hussain’s death is not just the death of an individual, but a deep stain on the face of the society. The question is, for how long will a person’s life continue to be taken by asking his name and religion, and when will the law stop being crushed at the hands of the mob?
