Bangladesh Violence: The situation in Bangladesh is becoming increasingly tense, with the arrest of another ISKCON member, Shyam Das Prabhu, just days after the detention of Chinmoy Krishna Das. This has sparked further protests and unrest within the Hindu community, raising concerns about the growing instability. As atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh continue to rise, including the vandalism of temples and violent clashes, many are questioning whether the country is spiraling into anarchy.

ISKCON Member's Arrest Sparks Outrage

Radharamn Das, the vice-president and spokesperson of ISKCON Kolkata, shared the news on social media platform X. He said, “Another Brahmachari Sri Shyam Das Prabhu was arrested by Chattogram Police today.” This new arrest has deepened fears within the Hindu community. The recent vandalism of a center in Bhairav has further escalated their distress. ISKCON leaders have expressed concerns over the safety of their members and the broader Hindu minority in Bangladesh.

Background: Arrest of Chinmoy Krishna Das and Its Fallout

The unrest began with the arrest of Chinmoy Krishna Das, a former ISKCON Bangladesh member, on sedition charges. Following his detention, widespread protests erupted in cities like Dhaka and Chattogram. Tensions flared on Tuesday when a Chattogram court denied him bail, leading to clashes between protesters and police. Tragically, Assistant Public Prosecutor Saiful Islam lost his life during the violence.

The police have since arrested nine individuals in connection with the incident and filed a case against 46 people, many of whom belong to the Hindu minority. This crackdown has heightened fears of systematic atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh.

Rising Bangladesh Violence and Attacks on Hindu Temples

The situation worsened on Friday when three Hindu temples were attacked in Chattogram. These attacks have deepened the sense of insecurity among the minority community and added to the ongoing protests. Amid the rising Bangladesh violence, ISKCON and other Hindu organisations have called for immediate action to ensure the safety of Hindus and minority groups in Bangladesh.
