An incident of attacking the Hindu youth in the Police station on allegations of blasphemy

Dhaka, Bangladesh – Hindu youth, Utsab Mandal, who was beaten by a mob over blasphemy allegations in Khulna in Bangladesh, is alive, said the Directorate of Inter Services Public Relations of the country. A statement issued by ISPR said that Utsab Mandal is being treated at a hospital under army supervision and is out of danger. However, some Hindu leaders in Bangladesh have reported to Sanatan Prabhat that Utsab Mandal’s eyes were gouged out.

Utsab Mandal was accused of insulting Prophet Mohammad on social media on 4th September. A large mob of 3,000-5,000 people surrounded the office, assaulted him, leaving him critically injured. But despite the presence of police, army and navy forces, the mob managed to break into the DCP office and attacked Utsab Mandal who was held by the police. After the brutal assault, it was assumed that he had died as he was lying on the ground seemingly lifeless. It has also been reported that to disperse the bloodthirsty mob, announcements were made from loudspeakers of nearby mosques announcing that the Hindu youth had died, after which the mob retreated.

The directorate said that Mandal was rescued alive by the efforts of armed forces and then admitted to hospital. Utsab Mandal will be handed over to law enforcement agencies after he is discharged from the hospital, he as he is booked in a blasphemy case.
