The brutal killing of Aniel Chakwa in Uttarakhand is not just a tragedy—it is a national disgrace.

— Shashi Tharoor (@ShashiTharoor) December 29, 2025

He said, ‘A young man from Tripura, who was proudly Indian, was subjected to racial abuses, inhumanely insulted with words like Chinese and Momo and finally murdered. This was not an isolated incident of violence, it is the result of ignorance, prejudice and the failure of our society to recognize and respect our own diversity.

This incident is very shameful – Shashi Tharoor

Describing this incident as a worrying trend, the Congress leader said, ‘It is shocking and extremely shameful that racism is on the rise in North India, which is often hidden behind light jokes or institutional neglect.’ He said that discrimination against the people of north-eastern states hurts the basic concept of India. The Northeast, with its rich cultures, languages ​​and traditions, is not a distant part of Indian identity, but its core. Yet people from this area often face racial profiling, exclusion and abuse. This should stop now.

Demanding accountability beyond the courts, Tharoor said, ‘We have to demand justice for Aniel (Angel Chakma) not just in the courts, but also in the conscience of the nation. His death should not be reduced to a statistic or a total of headline moments.

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.

India rejected the misleading propaganda being spread by the Bangladeshi media regarding the protest in front of the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi and asserted that there was no security breach during the protest nor was there any threat to the diplomatic mission.

India’s External Affairs Minister said only a few protesters had gathered outside the High Commission for a short time to express outrage over the killing of Dipu Chandra Das in Bangladesh’s Mymensingh district and demand protection for minorities in the South Asian country.

What did Randhir Jaiswal tell?
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal refuted reports of an attempt to infiltrate the campus, saying, ‘We have seen misleading propaganda about this incident in some sections of the Bangladeshi media. The truth is that on December 20, about 20-25 youth gathered in front of the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi and raised slogans against the heinous murder of Dipu Chandra Das in Mymensingh, and also demanded protection of all minorities in Bangladesh.

He further said, ‘At no time was any attempt made to break the fence or create a situation of insecurity. The police deployed at the spot dispersed the group within a few minutes. The visual evidence of these incidents is publicly available for all to see. He further said and emphasized that India is committed to the security of foreign diplomats and their missions in accordance with the Vienna Convention.

M Tauheed Hussain warned
Dhaka rejected India’s comments and claimed that how the protesters were allowed to come so close to the installation located in a secure diplomatic zone. In a statement, Bangladesh’s foreign affairs advisor M Tauheed Hossain warned that Dhaka would reduce its diplomatic presence in India if the situation worsens.

“With regard to the Indian press note, we completely reject it, absolutely reject it,” state news agency Bangladesh Sangabad Sangastha (BSS) quoted M Tauheed Hossain, foreign affairs adviser to the interim government, as saying at a media briefing on Sunday. This issue has been presented as if it is very simple, whereas in reality it is not so.

Bangladesh raised questions
He raised the question, ‘How can a group of 25 to 30 people, said to be related to a Hindu extremist organisation, reach such a sensitive area.’ He further said that under normal circumstances this should not have been possible unless he was allowed to go there. Regarding the statement of the Foreign Ministry, Hussain said that they say that there might have been 20-25 people, but this is not the issue.

Taking a big step, the police have arrested eight accused in the case of brutal mob lynching that took place in Nawada district of Bihar. This incident took place on December 5 in Bhatta village of Roh block, where 35-year-old Athar Hussain was targeted by asking his name and religion. According to the police, the investigation is ongoing and the search for the remaining accused has been intensified.

The identity of the clothes seller became the cause of death.

Athar Hussain was a resident of Nalanda district and was supporting his family by selling clothes in Nawada area for the last 20 years. On the evening of 5th December, he was returning from Dumri village when 6-7 intoxicated youth surrounded him near Bhatta village. First he was asked his house and name, then when he told his name as Mohammad Athar Hussain, the behavior of the crowd suddenly became violent. He was forcibly taken off his bicycle and robbed of his money, his hands and legs were tied and dragged into a room, where he was subjected to extreme cruelty.

Inhuman torture in the name of affirmation of religion, painful revelation on camera

Before his death, Athar had told on the camera of ABP NEWS how he was brutally treated. It is alleged that to confirm that he was a Muslim, his clothes were removed and his private parts were searched. After this, petrol was poured on the body and hands, legs, fingers and body were burnt with a hot iron rod. Fingers were broken and ears were cut with pliers. 10-15 people beat him brutally with sticks and rods. In this statement recorded at Nawada Sadar Hospital on the night of 7th December, Athar says that every child knows me, yet he was treated like this, this wound is unbearable.

Questions arising on FIR and police action

The police rescued Athar in his injured condition and got him treated, later he was referred to Bihar Sharif Sadar Hospital, where he died on the night of 12 December. The postmortem took place at Nalanda Sadar Hospital under the supervision of the forensic team and magistrate. In this case, Athar’s wife Shabnam had lodged an FIR on the night of 6 December.

Earlier, a complaint had also been filed against Athar accusing him of theft, which further complicated the matter. According to Roh police station in-charge, eight accused have been arrested so far. It is noteworthy that in 2025, incidents of violence and death have also come to light in Nawada in cases like suspicion of theft and witchcraft allegations, due to which serious questions are being raised on law and order.

Mohammad Athar Hussain, injured in mob lynching in Roh police station area of ​​Nawada district of Bihar, died in Bihar Sharif Sadar Hospital late on Friday night. Now Shabnam Praveen, wife of deceased Athar Hussain, is pleading for justice along with her children regarding his death. She said that my husband was killed only because his religion was different. The religion was seen by opening the pants, hands were broken, ears were cut off, electrocuted and beaten brutally. We neither got the support of the administration nor got justice, we want justice.

Shabnam Praveen told that she had lodged an FIR in Roh police station at around 8 pm on 6th December. They allege that before this, a separate FIR was registered at 10 am on December 6 by falsely accusing Athar Hussain of theft. Shabnam says that a deliberate attempt was made to show her husband as a criminal, whereas the truth is that he was targeted by asking his name and religion. He alleged that he did not get any concrete support from the administration after the incident.

There was an accident with her husband on 5th December – Shabnam

According to Shabnam Praveen, on December 5, when her husband Athar Hussain was returning from Dumri village, 6 to 7 intoxicated youth stopped him near Bhatta village. First the home address was asked, then the name. As soon as he told his name as Mohammad Athar Hussain, the crowd went wild. He was forcibly taken off his bicycle, robbed of his money and dragged into a room with his hands and legs tied.

Inhuman torture and violence in the name of religion

Family members allege that all limits of cruelty were crossed with Athar in the room. The religion was checked by opening the pants, an attempt was made to burn the private parts by pouring petrol on them. Apart from this, the body was branded with hot iron rods, fingers were broken, ears were cut and electric current was applied to the private parts. Younger brother Mohammad Chand raised the question whether Muslims do not have the right to live in Bihar. Is action taken only after seeing religion?

Athar recorded his statement before his death

Wife Shabnam told that during treatment at Nawada Sadar Hospital on December 7, Athar Hussain had narrated his entire ordeal to the ABP correspondent in a trembling voice. He had said that the police saved him and got him treated, but the wounds were so deep that his body was not supporting him. He died during treatment at Bihar Sharif Sadar Hospital on the night of 12 December. The postmortem took place at Nalanda Sadar Hospital under the supervision of the forensic team and magistrate.

Family members demanded action from police

According to Roh police station in-charge Ranjan Kumar regarding this incident, four accused Sonu Kumar, Ranjan Kumar, Sachin Kumar and Shri Kumar have been arrested in this case, while the search for others is going on. However, family members are calling this action inadequate. Son Istekhar Hussain said with downcast eyes that we only want justice from the government and administration. This case once again raises serious questions on the increasing incidents of mob lynching in Nawada.

The atmosphere became tense after the murder of 21-year-old youth Rahul Kumar on Thursday (December 12) in Baswariya village under Nautan police station area of ​​West Champaran district of Bihar. He was allegedly attacked by a group of people near Bagahi Lohia bridge, after which the seriously injured Rahul was first taken to GMCH and then referred to Rahmania Hospital in Motihari.

According to the information, he died during treatment. As soon as the news of the death was received, anger erupted in the village and a large number of villagers came out on the streets.

Angry villagers blocked Bettiah-Nautan main road

The villagers blocked the Bettiah-Nautan main road with the help of bamboo sticks, wood and barricades, due to which traffic came to a standstill for about two hours. Nautan and the police from nearby police stations reached the spot and tried to convince the people and the situation gradually came under control. However, tension remained in the entire area during the jam and people kept demanding immediate arrest of the accused.

Police named six people

While filing a complaint with the police, Rahul’s mother Kamalavati Devi has named six people from Baswariya and Sansarai villages namely Ambedkar Patel, Hrithik Kumar, Bablu Patel, Golu Yadav, Amit Yadav and Jhunjhun Kumar along with five-six other unknown people. It is alleged in the complaint that Jhunjhun Kumar called Rahul out of the house and after that he was attacked and killed as part of a conspiracy. The family says that the accused first hit Rahul’s motorcycle and then attacked his head and body with an iron rod and bike shock-absorber pipe. Rahul’s condition had deteriorated significantly due to serious head injuries.

The shocking thing is that after the incident, the accused called Rahul’s family and informed them that he had met with an accident. The police is calling it a conspiracy to murder and is investigating from multiple angles, in which the possibility of old enmity and personal dispute is also being raised.

Immediate action taken to remove the jam

Sadar SDPO Vivek Deep said that immediate action was taken to remove the road jam and restore peace. He said that an FIR has been registered and a special team has been formed to arrest the accused. Police are claiming that the matter will be solved soon.
