Bangladesh interim government’s senior adviser has said that the state will take responsibility of the family of the Hindu worker who was lynched on blasphemy charges last week.
Education adviser CR Abrar on Tuesday met the bereaved family of 25-year-old Dipu Das, who was killed by a mob and his body set on fire on December 18 in Mymensingh.
“The state has taken the responsibilities of taking care of Dipu Das’s child, wife, and parents,” Abrar said, calling the killing of the garment factory worker a “brutal crime which has no excuse”.
Abrar said ahead of meeting the family, he held talks with Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus, who asked him to convey to them the government’s “profound sorrow and deepest condolences”.
According to newspaper reports, Das’s father Rabi Chandra Das demanded justice for his son’s killing, describing the condition of the family to the adviser.
