Tragic Assault in Bangladesh: Hindu Union Parishad Representative Brutally Raped and Poisoned to Death.
In a harrowing incident from Narail district, Bangladesh, Basana Mallik, a 46-year-old Hindu woman and an elected Union Parishad Member, was brutally gang-raped by a group identified as Islamists.
Following the assault, the perpetrators forced poison into her mouth, leading to her death in the hospital at 25th December. Before she succumbed to her injuries, Basana Mallik managed to reveal the names of some of her attackers, including Rajibur and Osman.
This event underscores the ongoing challenges faced by religious minorities in Bangladesh, particularly Hindus, amidst rising incidents of violence and discrimination. The incident has sparked widespread condemnation and calls for justice and protection for minority communities.
The local authorities are under pressure to investigate and bring the culprits to justice swiftly, in light of this heinous crime against a public servant.
