The brutal rape of a 21-year-old Hindu woman in Cumilla, Bangladesh, by local BNP leader Fazor Ali during a local festival has sparked national outrage and student-led protests. The assault was filmed and widely circulated on social media, prompting further public anger. Police arrested Fazor Ali and four others responsible for recording and sharing the video, after facing criticism for an initially slow response.
