A report by Dhaka-based Ain O Salish Kendra (ASK) highlights a significant increase in mob violence in Bangladesh during 2025, with 197 deaths compared to 128 the previous year. The organization stated that at least 293 people have died in mob violence since the Muhammad Yunus-led interim government took office in 2024. The report details incidents of mob terrorism, including killings based on suspicion and rumors, vandalism, and attacks on minority communities. ASK also noted a failure by law enforcement agencies to intervene effectively in many cases.
