Amid anti-India protests in Bangladesh, a young Hindu man was killed in a mob lynching in Bhaluka Upazila of Mymensingh district over allegations of insulting Islam. Angry protestors then set the body of Dipu Chandra Das, 30, on fire, according to Bangladeshi media reports. The incident happened as violent protests gripped Bangladesh following the death of Sharif Osman Hadi, a prominent leader of the July Uprising. The Muhammad Yunus-led interim government has strongly condemned the lynching of the Hindu man, saying there is no place for such violence in a new Bangladesh. It vowed that those responsible for the heinous crime would not be spared. “At this critical hour, we call upon every citizen to honour Shaheed (martyr) Hadi by rejecting and resisting violence, incitement and hatred,” the government said in a statement.
