On Tuesday (27th May) evening, a local Muslim man named Alamgir and his two sons threatened a Hindu family with murder. The incident occurred in Ward No 3 of Bisharkandi union in Banaripara Upazila in Barisal district of Bangladesh.
In a video that has now surfaced on social media, a Hindu woman was heard saying, “My child is scared. He asked ‘Will I be abducted?’ He asked ‘Can we not live and thrive in this country’.”
The Hindu woman assured her child that there is law and order in Bangladesh and that nothing would happen to him.
Jamaat Islami militant Alamgir and his sons Anis & Yunus have issued death threats and threatened to rape Hindu girls. A Hindu family lives in fear, their children traumatized. Where is the protection for minorities?
