December 21, 2025

WASHINGTON — Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi today condemned the targeted mob killing of Dipu Chandra Das, a Hindu man in Bangladesh, amid rising instability and unrest, and called on Bangladeshi authorities to ensure accountability, protect religious minorities, and restore the rule of law.

“I am appalled by the targeted mob killing of Dipu Chandra Das, a Hindu man in Bangladesh—an act of violence amid a period of dangerous instability and unrest,” said Congressman Krishnamoorthi. “While authorities have reported arrests, the Government of Bangladesh must aggressively pursue a full and transparent investigation and prosecute all those responsible to the fullest extent of the law. It must also take urgent action to protect Hindu communities and other religious minorities from further violence. For the sake of all Bangladeshis, this unrest must end and the rule of law must be upheld.”
