A video of the brutal attack has surfaced on social media. According to local reports, the assault was carried out by members of a group called ‘Asad Bahini’. They accused Chowdhury of being an agent of the Awami League and of “spreading false news.”

Chowdhury’s son, Rakesh Chowdhury, told the Bangladeshi daily Prothom Alo that his father was speaking to some people outside their home at night when a group of youths suddenly appeared, used abusive language, and started a quarrel. Moments later, they attacked his father violently, snatching away his mobile phone and wallet before fleeing the scene.

Editorial Perspective

Until the ethnic cleansing of Hindus in Bangladesh stops, such attacks will continue; and it is equally true that not a single Hindu organization or political party across the world will come forward to help them.
