Thousands of Islamist group Hefazat-e-Islam supporters on Wednesday reportedly attacked a Hindu village, leaving 70-80 houses vandalised, in Bangladesh. They attacked after a Hindu man, from Noagaon, allegedly criticised the group's joint-secretary general Mawlana Mufti Mamunul's speech in a Facebook post. Hefazat leaders also staged a protest, accusing the post of inciting religious violence.
