Several Ahmadi Muslims of Tangail District were viciously attacked by a group of Islamist fanatics.
The attack took place on the afternoon of October 18th in Chantara village under Ghatail Police Station jurisdiction.
6 including one woman named Hosna Banu were severely injured.
Injured Bano was first taken to Tangail Hospital and due to critical condition of her injuries she was moved to Dhaka Medical College Hospital.
The Ahmadis of Chantara village have been the subject of repeated attacks since June, 2010, it has been widely reported.
On 17th June Ahmadiyya mosque and houses were demolished and again on 7th & 8th August they were attacked and their houses were repeatedly vandalized and looted.
The Ahmadiyya national relief team was attacked during the holy month of Ramadan when a central team went to distribute cloths and foods before Eid ul Fitr.
On 19th September an Ahmadi minor girl was kidnapped and molested.
Police reports were filed but no practical action was taken.
A section of local Islamist fanatics under the banner of "Imam Parishad" have long been campaigning against 40 Ahmadiyya families in the village.

In today's 21st century its very sad that most peaceful religion's so called followers are acting brutal on name of Islam and Holy prophet pbuh of Islam.
ReplyDeleteNothing new if we study history of all faiths and its followers in early days and in their later days.
In Islam there are many sects and each of them has different interpretations of the Islamic faith. Unfortunately, Ahmadi Muslims are being prosecuted and victimized around the world for their belief that the Promised Messiah has come in the form of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad. These extremists Muslims that are targeting Ahmadi mosques and houses are doing so based on their misinterpretations of the teachings of the Holy Quran, and the belief that their sect is the only viable Islamic sect. As an Ahmadi Muslim, I feel for these troubled families in Tangail and hope that situation improves. I also wish that the government steps forward and provides aid and protection to Ahmadi Muslims against radical Muslims.
