After Amrit Mandal, another case of murder of Hindu has come to light in Bangladesh. It is being told that fundamentalist Noman Mian has killed Bajendra Biswas by shooting him with his shotgun.
The incident occurred around 6.45 pm on Monday at Sultana Sweaters Limited, a textile unit of Labib Group, in Bhaluka upazila area. The victim has been identified as Bajendra Biswas (42), while the accused Noman Mian (29) has been arrested.
How did the murder happen?
According to police and eyewitnesses, both the men were posted as security guards at the factory and were living in the Ansar barracks within the complex. During a conversation, Noman Mian allegedly jokingly pointed the government gun at Biswas. After a few minutes the gun went off and the bullet hit Biswas in his left thigh.
Biswas was immediately taken to Bhaluka Upazila Health Centre, where doctors declared him brought dead.
‘Those attacks were not on Hindus…’
Earlier, Bangladesh’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement, “With great sadness, we note that systematic attempts are being made to portray isolated incidents of criminal acts as systematic persecution of Hindus and are being maliciously used to spread anti-Bangladesh sentiments in different parts of India.”
The statement said, “One of the persons identified by the MEA spokesperson was a listed criminal who unfortunately met his death while he was carrying out extortion along with his Muslim partner, who was later arrested. Portraying this criminal act from the perspective of minority behavior is not factual but misleading. Bangladesh appeals to various quarters in India to desist from spreading misleading stories that undermine good neighborly relations and the spirit of mutual trust.”
