A mob in the city of Khulna in Bangladesh has attacked and possibly killed a young man over accusations that he “insulted the prophet”. The details are scant, but what we do know is that the man, previously reported as being 15, was barely alive when the army finally stepped in to break up the crowd, which had begun beating him severely.

Originally, he was declared as dead, but this was only done in order to disperse the blood thirsty crowd. They then took to announcing the “good news” on the loudspeakers of a nearby mosques, triumphantly celebrating his supposed demise.

So, the youth is alive. Surely it’s over, right?

The statement issued by ISPR states that after Utsab Mandal is released from hospital, he will be handed over to law enforcement agencies as he is booked in a blasphemy case. Referring to the attempt to lynch him by an Islamist mob, the statement said that the Bangladesh army is always committed to preventing extrajudicial killings and upholding the rule of law.

Of course! They are excellent defenders of their broken and disgusting laws. The only exception is whenever a mob just wants to let loose and have a little bit of medieval fun. They call it “hurting religious sentiments”. Is that not all you need to know about just how pathetic Islam is, when it needs to put to death anyone who dares to say something they don’t like? When will the world be rid of such evil?
