Chinmoy Krishna Das, spokesperson for the Bangladesh Sommilito Sanatan Jagaran Jot coalition, faces sedition charges for allegedly disrespecting the national flag during a rally.

After Das's bail plea was rejected on Tuesday, the Chittagong court premises turned into a warzone that led to the death of a lawyer.

Bangladesh arrested Hindu priest Chinmoy Krishna Das on specific charges, sparking protests and international concern. India voiced "deep concern" over the arrest and denial of bail, urging Bangladesh to ensure minority safety.
