Bangladesh’s Blasphemy Trap: In #Tahirpur, #Sunamganj, a false or unverified social-media allegation against minority youth Dipto Ray reportedly led to arrest, mob pressure, home destruction, and temple attack.
HRCBM’s preliminary 2026 documentation identifies 17 blasphemy-related cases from Jan–Jun. Last year, HRCBM reported 73 minority youths arrested under blasphemy allegations.
Accusation is not evidence. Mob anger is not justice. Arrest before digital forensics is not due process.

Bangladesh’s Test of Religious Freedom:
In Gaibandha/Palashbari, a Hindu temple project was portrayed by hardline opponents as a threat to public order and national security. The temple founder faced intimidation, calls for arrest, and pressure to retreat in the name of “harmony.”
HRCBM’s field team visited the site, met local authorities, and documented concerns over temple protection, minority safety, and selective justice.
Gaibandha is not isolated. It reflects a wider pattern of temple threats, blasphemy double standards, and shrinking space for Bangladesh’s Hindu minority.

A young father. A #Hindu minority citizen. A Customs officer returning from official training.
Bullet Bairagi was found dead near the Dhaka–Chattogram Highway after going missing in #Cumilla, #Bangladesh. Police describe it as a mugging, but justice requires the full truth.
#HRCBM calls for a transparent, evidence-based investigation into the complete motive behind his killing—including whether his minority identity, official position, or broader patterns of targeted violence played any role.
A robbery explanation, even if proven, must not obscure any additional motive or pattern of minority vulnerability.
Justice for Bullet Bairagi.
Justice for every victim.

Another Hindu priest found dead.
Nayan Sadhu, a Hindu temple priest from Khurushkul, Cox’s Bazar, was missing for 3 days before his body was recovered from a forest under suspicious circumstances.
HRCBM’s field team visited the spot, recorded eyewitness testimonies, and found alarming similarities with previous suspicious deaths of Hindu priests across Bangladesh.
From Sukumar Das in Sitakunda to Nayan Sadhu in Cox’s Bazar, a troubling pattern is emerging—priests, temple caretakers, and religious figures found dead while families demand justice.
Even police suggested that CID or a specialized body may be needed for a proper investigation.
This is not just one death. It is a serious human rights concern involving minority security, rule of law, and justice.
We demand:
• Immediate impartial investigation
• Full forensic transparency
• Protection for minority religious leaders
• Accountability for perpetrators
Silence enables impunity.

Between June–December 2025, 433 incidents impacting minority communities were reported across 45 of 64 districts in #Bangladesh.
Given systemic underreporting, the actual figures are likely significantly higher.
Urgent attention and accountability are required.

📊 Bangladesh’s minority crisis is no longer episodic — it is cumulative and escalating.
Between 6 June 2025 and 5 January 2026, HRCBM documented 116 targeted killings of minority individuals.
In December 2025 alone, we recorded 87 additional human rights violations spanning violence, dispossession, and criminalization.
December 2025 — Divisional spread:
• Chattogram: 18 | Dhaka: 17 | Khulna: 14
• Rajshahi: 9 | Sylhet: 9 | Barishal: 8
• Rangpur: 8 | Mymensingh: 4
December violations included:
🔴 24 murders
🔴 16 targeted robberies
🔴 10 land-grabbing cases
🔴 7 arson attacks
🔴 6 attacks on temples
🔴 False cases & blasphemy arrests
Taken together, these figures reveal a continuum of persecution — where killings represent the lethal extreme, and daily violence, dispossession, and intimidation sustain fear and impunity.
These are not isolated crimes.
It reflects a systemic failure to protect minority communities.

At least 116 members of minority communities were killed in Bangladesh in just seven months, pointing to a “relentless" and nationwide surge in violence following the formation of the interim government led by Muhammad Yunus, according to a new report by the Human Rights Congress for Bangladesh Minorities (HRCBM).
The report documents killings between June 6, 2025, and January 5, 2026, spread across all eight administrative divisions and at least 45 districts, underscoring that the violence is not confined to isolated pockets but represents a countrywide crisis.

📊 HRCBM has documented 78 blasphemy-related cases in 2025 alone, devastating thousands of minority families through killings, mob violence, false cases, displacement, and fear.What we are witnessing is not justice.
It is mob vigilantism, extrajudicial execution, and the progressive erasure of minorities—enabled by impunity, delayed intervention, and failure to prosecute.When:
allegations replace evidence,
mobs replace courts, and
violence replaces law,minority existence itself comes under threat.Silence does not preserve stability.
Silence accelerates erasure.The world must take note—and act.

Human Rights Day 2025 | HRCBM Press Conference — Dhaka, #Bangladesh
Today, on 10 December—International Human Rights Day, the Human Rights Congress for Bangladesh Minorities (HRCBM)—an NGO in Special Consultative Status with the @UN ECOSOC and a proud member of the ICC NGO Coalition—will hold a press conference in Dhaka, #Bangladesh, at the Bangladesh Crime Reporters Association (CRAB).
This year’s Human Rights Day carries the core message of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR):
👉 “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.”
Yet, across Bangladesh, religious and ethnic minorities continue to face targeted killings, mob violence, land seizures, blasphemy-related persecution, gender-based violence, and systemic denial of justice.
At today’s press conference, HRCBM will:
Present verified findings from across the country
Highlight recent killings in early December
Call for truth, accountability, dignity, and protection for vulnerable minority communities
📍 Location: Bangladesh Crime Reporters Association (CRAB), Ground Floor — Dhaka, Bangladesh
🕚 Time: 11:00 AM (Bangladesh Standard Time)
🎯 Theme: Justice for Bangladesh’s Persecuted Minorities
For more than two decades, HRCBM has documented violations, supported victims, and advocated nationally and internationally for minority rights.
Human rights are not optional. They are a birthright.
Let humanity prevail.

🚨 HRCBM warns of a deepening human rights crisis in #Bangladesh.
#Blasphemy allegations—often based on hacked @facebook accounts, doctored screenshots, or fabricated claims—are being weaponized to target minorities from minors to the elderly, triggering mob attacks, arbitrary arrests, and mass displacement.
From Shalla to Rangpur, Khulna to Cumilla, our 2025 documentation shows a disturbing national pattern:
73 blasphemy-related incidents • 40 verified cases • 32 districts affected
We also urge @facebook to strengthen protections for vulnerable users whose accounts are repeatedly exploited to fabricate accusations.
These allegations are no longer isolated—they have become a systematic tool of intimidation, communal domination, and extortion.
HRCBM calls on the Government of Bangladesh to:
🔹 Ensure cyber-forensic verification
🔹 Prosecute fabricated cases
🔹 Protect vulnerable communities
🔹 Compensate affected families
🔹 End impunity for mob violence
Blasphemy must not be a weapon against Bangladesh’s minorities.

HRCBM is proud to share that our Regional Director for Europe, Ms. Jaya Rani Barman — one of our inspiring young leaders — delivered a powerful and moving address at the @UN#Minority#Rights Forum.
Speaking before global delegates and human rights experts, she highlighted the decades-long persecution faced by Bangladesh’s religious and ethnic minorities: recurring violence, land dispossession, gender-based attacks, forced disappearances, and the systemic denial of justice.
She urged the international community to stand with vulnerable communities and support HRCBM’s Transitional Justice Framework — a roadmap for truth, accountability, reparations, institutional reform, and long-term protection of Bangladesh’s minorities.
Her presence at the UN reflects the strength of HRCBM’s global volunteer network and the shared commitment of all our leaders to justice, equality, and human dignity.
We congratulate Jaya for representing the unheard with clarity and courage, and for advancing HRCBM’s mission on the world stage.
Together, we stand for justice.
Together, we defend the rights of Bangladesh’s minorities.
Together, we strive for a future of dignity, security, and hope for all.
