Hindu minorities and their temples are not safe in the Muslim-majority Bangladesh. A fresh case has been reported from the Sitakunda district of Bangladesh.
On the night of 24th of June, unidentified miscreants targeted a Kali Mata temple in Kedarkhil village under the Sayedpur union of Sitakunda. The perpetrators entered the temple around midnight by breaking the lock of the gate. They took valuable gold and silver ornaments from the Vigraha. They also broke the donation box of the temple and took all the money from it.
Next morning, the priest of the temple first saw that the gate of the temple was open. So, he informed others. Locals soon gathered in front of the temple. They found that valuable ornaments and money from the donation box were stolen.
Meanwhile, the Police were informed about the matter. A team of personnel from the Sitakunda Police Station reached there. But, as there was no CCTV installed in the temple, the police got no clue about the culprits. As of now, no one has been identified or arrested.
