Hindu Trader Lynched with Concrete Slabs in B’desh, Attackers Dance Over Body
In a shocking and gruesome incident, a Hindu scrap trader was brutally lynched with concrete slabs in Bangladesh’s capital city, Dhaka. The incident has sparked widespread outrage and protests, with hundreds of students taking to the streets to demand justice for the victim.
According to reports, the victim, identified as Lal Chand Sohag, was a 45-year-old scrap trader who was attacked by a group of assailants in the Jatrabari area of Dhaka on Friday evening. The attackers, reportedly around 10-15 in number, used concrete slabs to beat Sohag to death, and then danced over his lifeless body.
The horrific incident was captured on video, which has since been widely circulated on social media, triggering widespread shock and outrage across the country. The video shows Sohag being beaten mercilessly with concrete slabs, with the attackers laughing and dancing over his body as he lies helpless on the ground.
The motive behind the attack is still unclear, but local reports suggest that Sohag may have been targeted over a dispute related to his scrap trading business. The incident has sparked fears of rising religious tensions in the country, with many calling for urgent action to be taken to prevent such incidents in the future.
In the aftermath of the incident, hundreds of students from various universities in Dhaka took to the streets to protest against the brutal killing of Sohag. The protesters, who were mostly students from Islamic universities, chanted slogans and held placards demanding justice for the victim and an end to religious violence.
The Bangladesh police have arrested at least five people in connection with the incident, and are investigating the matter further. The authorities have also promised to take stern action against those responsible for the heinous crime.
The incident has sent shockwaves across the country, with many calling for greater action to be taken to prevent such incidents in the future. The Bangladeshi government has also condemned the attack, with Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina ordering an investigation into the matter.
The killing of Sohag has also sparked concerns about the rising intolerance and violence against minorities in Bangladesh. The country has a significant Hindu population, and there have been several reports of Hindu temples and properties being vandalized and destroyed in recent years.
The incident has also drawn international attention, with many human rights organizations and governments condemning the attack. The United Nations has called for the immediate release of those arrested in connection with the incident and for the authorities to take all necessary measures to ensure the safety and security of all citizens, regardless of their religion or ethnicity.
As the investigation into the incident continues, the people of Bangladesh are left to wonder how such a heinous crime could have been committed in broad daylight. The attack on Sohag is a stark reminder of the dangers of intolerance and religious extremism, and the need for greater action to be taken to prevent such incidents in the future.
