Four dead over offensive Facebook post

At least four people were killed and 47 others injured as police clashed with a Muslim mob in Bangladesh’s Bhola district over an offensive Facebook post.
The clash erupted at around 11 a.m. on Sunday when hundreds of local Muslims gathered in a field demanding the trial of a Hindu man, who allegedly made some disrespectful comments over Prophet Muhammad on the social media platform on Friday, Efe news quoted the police as saying.
“A Hindu man made disrespectful comments over Prophet, he was arrested. But protesters gathered today demanding his immediate trial,” said police inspector Salahuddin Miah of Bhola.
“The protesters had been assured that the accused was taken to the custody and legal process against him was underway. But they did not listen to us and started raining down brickbats at law enforcers,” he said.
