Images of a man on a hospital bed with his head wrapped in bandages and an endotracheal tube in his mouth are being circulated widely on social media with the claim that the person in the photos is an advocate who was brutally attacked for representing detained monk Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari in Bangladesh.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Das, a spokesperson of the Bangladesh Sammilito Sanatani Jagran Jot, and associated with the Bangladesh chapter of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), was arrested by the Dhaka Metropolitan Police on November 25. He was taken in<\/a> for allegedly disrespecting the Bangladeshi national flag and is reportedly facing sedition charges there. <\/span><\/p>\n

Das’s arrest sparked protests in which at least one person was killed<\/a>. After his arrest, New Delhi had issued a strongly-worded statement<\/a> condemning the detention of a “religious leader presenting legitimate demands” while perpetrators of “cases of arson and looting of minorities” homes and business establishments, as well as theft and vandalism and desecration of deities and temples” remain at large.<\/span><\/p>\n

On December 3, Das’s bail hearing was postponed to January next year as there was no lawyer representing him, according to a report<\/a> by The Indian Express. <\/span><\/p>\n

A day before this, Radharamn Das (@RadharamnDas<\/a><\/span>)<\/span>, who is the vice president and spokesperson of ISKCON Kolkata, posted a picture on <\/span>X (formerly Twitter) with a caption that read, \u201c<\/span>Please pray for Advocate Ramen Roy. His only ‘fault’ was defending Chinmoy Krishna Prabhu in court. Islamists ransacked his home and brutally attacked him, leaving him in the ICU, fighting for his life.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
