Book the perpetrators

We are outraged at the attack on the Hindu community in Brahmanbaria. The law enforcement agencies responsible for the safety of all civilians could not protect the victims.
All too often, bigots of the society disrupt peace, security and stability, and spoil our secular image to the global community. These people do not represent our culture and values.
We urge the government to take stringent measures by conducting credible investigation through a high-level probe committee and, if necessary, consisting of a judicial body. The perpetrators should be held accountable for the damages. Finally, awareness programmes should be launched to spread the message of communal harmony.
We extend our heartiest condolenses to the victims of the Hindu community.
