Pro-Khalistan Sikhs, Indian Hindu protesters clash outside Bangladesh embassy in London

A protest erupted outside Bangladesh High Commission in London on Saturday (local time) over the killing of Hindus in Bangladesh amid the ongoing unrest there following the killing of radical youth leader Sharif Osman Hadi. The protest was staged by Indian and Bangladeshi Hindu communities, who were raising slogans against the Yunus government and demanding justice for the minorities in Bangladesh.

The protesters were also holding placards reading ‘Hindus have right to live’, ‘stop torture, stop rape’, ‘protect Bangladeshi Hindus’, ‘targeted, terrorised and silenced’ and ‘Hindu lives matter’. They were also demanding the release of Hindu monk Chinmoy Krishna Das, who has been charged with murder in Bangladesh. The protest, which saw participation of around 500 people, remained peaceful.
