Bangladesh's powerful students' body protests bail of Chinmoy Das, terms it example of 'Indian imperialism'

Dhaka, May 2 (UNI) Bangladesh’s powerful Students Against Discrimination (SAD) that led the movement to oust Sheikh Hasina's government last year, has protested against the bail given to Hindu monk Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari, terming it an example of "Indian imperialism".
SAD leader Hasnat Abdullah, who in the past has made anti-India comments, issued a statement against the bail given to Chinmoy Das, with SAD members demanding justice for the murder of Advocate Saiful Islam Alif, who was killed during a clash over Das’ remand on November 26, 2024.
The students' party, masterminds of the July-Uprising last year, called for a protest demonstration after the Jummah prayers at 2 pm today (May 2) in front of Anderkilla Shahi Jame Mosque in Chattogram, according to Business Standard BD.
