Last Updated:November 27, 2024, 13:12 IST

A petition has been filed in a Bangladeshi High Court seeking a ban on ISKCON as attacks on the Hindu community intensified in the country.

This comes as the Hindu community has been protesting against the arrest and denial of bail to a monk Chinmoy Krishna Das Prabhu who was slapped with sedition charges.

Prabhu has been raising his voice against atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh. He has also organised several protests demanding the security of the religious minority community.

He was arrested on November 25 at Dhaka Airport and was sent to jail on charges of sedition. Protests broke out outside the Chittagong court in which a lawyer was allegedly killed by the mob.
