A 15-year-old Hindu boy in Bangladesh, Utsav Mandol, was beaten and hacked to death by a mob inside a police station after being accused of making “objectionable comments” about Prophet Muhammad on social media. The incident occurred in Khulna City, where Mandol had been detained without forensic evidence. The mob attacked him in the presence of police and army personnel. Human Rights Congress for Bangladesh Minorities (HRCBM) reported the tragic event, highlighting the lack of protection for the boy despite being in police custody. The incident has raised concerns over religious intolerance and mob justice in the country.
