Bangladesh has been in turmoil ever since the death of 'Inquilab Mancha' spokesperson Sharif Osman Hadi. Anarchy and arson have gripped Bangladesh, the brunt of which has fallen on media organisations and the general populace alike.

Faruqui took to X and wrote, "Horrible footages and lynching videos from Bangladesh makes me sick and question humans. Protecting religion? These people are nothing but inhumane monsters and the world is watching in silence. Speak and make culprits hang".

Rajiv Adatia issues statement
Actor Rajiv Adatia also released a statement condemning the murder of Dipu Chandra Das. He wrote, "What's happening in Bangladesh is breaking my heart. I have always stood for humanity whether in Gaza, Ukraine, or anywhere else in the world. But what I'm witnessing in Bangladesh is truly appalling: people being attacked simply for being Hindu. The world needs peace. No religion teaches us to harm or destroy others because of their faith. This must stop."
