Greetings from Bangladesh Institute of Human Rights (BIHR) 

I am deeply concerned with the news I received from Global Human Rights Defence (GHRD), who, together with Bangladesh Institute of Human Rights (BIHR) have investigated the brutal gang rape of a 16 year old Hindu girl by at least 8 Muslim men on 19th of March. I have learned that several of the perpetrators are involved with the political cadre of Jubo Dal (youth wing of BNP), local Union Unit. It is particularly disturbing that the victim girl is forced to reside with female prisoners at the local jail, in the name of ‘safe custody.’
