The Minority Unity Alliance has expressed grave concern over a wave of threats and inflammatory rhetoric targeting Bangladesh’s Hindu community and the international religious group ISKCON, following the controversy surrounding Mufti Mohammad Mohibullah Miaji of Gazipur. Mohibullah himself had filed an abduction case with Tongi East Police on Oct 24, alleging he had been forcibly taken to Panchagarh. “Certain communal quarters have continued organised propaganda nationwide, targeting especially the Hindu community with threats to kill and destroy temples and idols,” the statement read. “This has created deep fear and anxiety among religious minorities.”The unity council and the Minority Unity Alliance condemned what they called the authorities’ “mysterious silence” in the face of these threats. It also called on democratic, secular and humanitarian citizens, journalists and political leaders nationwide to stand united against communal misinformation and incitement.
