Another Hindu youth was shot dead on Monday evening in Bangladesh’s Jashore district, sparking panic and fear in the local community. The incident occurred around 5:45 pm at Kopalia Bazar in Ward No. 17 of Manirampur Upazila.
The deceased has been identified as Rana Pratap, 45, son of Tushar Kanti Bairagi, and a resident of Arua village in Keshabpur Upazila. According to eyewitnesses and police sources, unidentified assailants opened fire on Pratap while he was at the market. He sustained multiple bullet injuries and died on the spot.
This marks the fifth fatal attack on members of the Hindu community in separate violent incidents over the past three weeks, raising serious concerns about law and order amid ongoing unrest and protests across the country.
Police Response and InvestigationFollowing the shooting, chaos gripped the area, prompting a swift response from the Manirampur Police Station, who quickly brought the situation under control. Officer-in-Charge Rajiullah Khan confirmed the incident and said arrangements were underway to recover the body and conduct a post-mortem. An investigation has been launched to identify and apprehend the perpetrators.
Series of Recent AttacksThe killing is part of a disturbing wave of violence against Bangladesh’s Hindu community in recent weeks. Earlier incidents include the lynching of Dipu Chandra Das, a Hindu garment factory worker, and the killing of Amrit Mondal. In Mymensingh district, Bajendra Biswas was shot dead, while on December 31, Khokon Chandra Das, a Hindu businessman in Shariatpur district, was stabbed and set on fire by a mob, succumbing later to burn injuries at the National Burn Institute in Dhaka.
The latest attack has intensified fears for the safety of minorities in Bangladesh, with authorities under growing pressure to restore law and order and prevent further violence.
