India-Bangladesh tensions mount as Hindu priest jailed for 'sedition'

Tensions escalated in Chittagong, Bangladesh, following a court's refusal to grant bail to Hindu priest Chinmoy Krishna Das, accused of sedition. The court's order against the priest charged with sedition triggered violent clashes between supporters of the monk and law enforcement forces who were joined by locals, leaving at least one dead and many others injured. Eyewitnesses identified the victim as Saiful Islam Alif (35), a lawyer, alleging that he was hacked to death by protesters.
