Dhaka: A least 107 people of the Hindu community were killed and 13 fell victims to enforced disappearance in 2017, which are higher than previous year’s figures Bangladesh Jatiya Hindu Mohajote (BJHM) claimed on Saturday.
Polash Kanti Dey, general secretary of BJHM, a grand alliance of national Hindu organisations, came up with the statistics while revealing a report titled ‘Atrocities on Religious Minorities in Bangladesh from January 1 to December 31 of 2017′ at a press conference at Dhaka Reporters’ Unity (DRU) in the city.
