In one week, two Hindus have been lynched in Bangladesh — and now, for the first time, the government has issued an official response. The statement follows the brutal mob killing of 29-year-old Amrit Mandal (also known as Samrat) in Pangsha upazila, Rajbari. Authorities say the incident “was not communal,” calling the deceased a “notorious criminal” who allegedly came to extort money and died after a clash with locals. br br But critics are asking: does having allegations against you mean a mob gets to decide your fate? And is it the government’s job to defend the dead — or to justify the crowd? br br The case unfolds as Dhaka remains tense after recent violence, protests, and rising political heat — raising deeper questions about law, order, minority safety, and whether justice can survive when the crowd becomes the judge br br #BangladeshLynching #AmritMandal #Pangsha #Rajbari #MobJustice #VictimBlaming #BangladeshGovernment #HinduMinority #BangladeshNews #SouthAsiaNews #DhakaProtests #RuleOfLaw #JusticeMatters #BreakingNews #Lynching #MobViolence #BangladeshCrisis #HumanRightsbr br ~HT.410~ED.
