Hindu Man Attacked In Bangladesh | Biggest Stories Of January 01, 2026

The devastated wife of a Hindu man, who was attacked with sharp weapons and set afire in Bangladesh, is at a loss for words. Seema Das told NDTV she can't understand why her husband, Khokon Chandra Das, was attacked so brutally as the family had no enemies in the area. "We have no dispute with anyone on any issue. We don't understand why my husband was suddenly targeted," Seema Das said in Bangla and broke down. Khokon Das' name is now on a growing list of Hindus in the crisis-hit, Muslim-majority nation who have been brutally attacked allegedly on religious grounds. "We are Hindu. We just want to live peacefully. The attackers were Muslims and the police are trying to arrest them. I request the government for help," Seema Das said.
