Bangladesh High Court Grants Bail to Chinmoy Krishna Das in Two Cases
Bangladesh's High Court granted bail to Hindu monk Chinmoy Krishna Das in two of four cases against him, including charges of attempted murder, vandalism, and obstruction of government duties. Das was arrested in November 2024 for allegedly insulting the national flag, sparking protests and clashes. Despite the bail, he remains in custody due to four other pending cases. Das is a vocal advocate for minority rights and has called for legal reforms to protect Bangladesh's Hindu community.
