Dipu Das lynching: No evidence of religious insult, says RAB
There is no evidence that Dipu Chandra Das, the 27-year-old man who was beaten to death by a mob, had insulted Islam, Additional DIG Naimul Hasan, commander of Rab-14, has said.
Several workers at the factory accused Dipu of hurting religious sentiment and began quarrelling, said the commander of Rab-14, at a press briefing today (20 December).
"The floor manager, Alamgir, then forced Dipu to resign, and instead of calling the police, handed him over to a group of people who had also accused Dipu of insulting religion," he added.
"The men then beat him to death soon afterwards."

@SoulSpokesman A man was brutally beaten and burned alive for a crime he did not commit. This is the reality unfolding in Bangladesh right now.
People can be killed in the name of religion, and no one would bother to bat an eyelid. These are truly frightening times.
Poor guy was killed because he was fighting for workers' rights in the factory. I hope the govt at least compensate his family. I have no hopes of real killers or masterminds of organizing the mob getting caught.
People have stopped thinking critically unfortunately.
With AI getting widespread - I am afraid idiots will be fooled into more of this kind of lynching.
