NOTE: Hardcore Muslims have been violently attacking and killing Hindu religious minorities in Bangladesh on a daily basis since August 5, 2024. The perpetrators are mostly at large due to the inaction and support from Bangladesh Government under the leadership of Dr. Muhammad Yunus, a Nobel Peace Prize Laureate. Bangladesh Government is not only complicit in these crimes against the religious minorities, the Government is also explicitly involved in these violent attacks using all three of the law enforcement authorities namely Police force, Military force and Judiciary. Hindu victims are victimized further by both the hardcore Muslim perpetrators and the Government.
