Hundreds protest outside Bangladesh embassy in Delhi as tensions soar over Hindu man’s death

Hundreds of people protested outside the Bangladesh High Commission in Delhi on Tuesday over the lynching and burning of a Hindu man in Bangladesh, as tensions between the two neighbours intensified.

The demonstration in Delhi followed the killing of Dipu Chandra Das, a 25-year-old factory worker who was beaten and set on fire last week in Bangladesh’s Mymensingh district after a crowd accused him of blasphemy, according to Reuters. Bangladeshi police said at least 10 people have been arrested in connection with his death.
