Electrocution victim falsely linked to Hindu man's lynching in Bangladesh

yahoo.com

A video falsely claims a killer of a Hindu man lynched in Bangladesh in 2025 died by electrocution. Police and family deny the connection. The video shows a man electrocuted on a roof, but he is unrelated to the 2025 lynching of Dipu Chandra Das. The deceased was identified as Shahadat Hossain, who died accidentally. Das, a garment worker, was lynched after blasphemy accusations. The false claim of revenge fueled misinformation between India and Bangladesh following unrest.
