Advocate Ramen Roy, representing Hindu priest Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari in Bangladesh, was brutally attacked, ISKCON stated. Roy, now in ICU, was targeted by alleged Islamists for defending the priest accused of sedition. ISKCON’s Radharaman Das called for prayers and highlighted escalating violence against minorities. Protests in West Bengal and Tripura condemned the attack. In Tripura, over 50 protesters breached the Bangladeshi mission, prompting India to term the incident "deeply regrettable." Meanwhile, Bangladesh denies claims of escalating violence, amid heightened tensions following the arrests of Hindu monks and activists. Indian authorities urged Bangladesh to protect minorities effectively.
