A lawyer defending Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari,  the Hindu priest arrested and accused of sedition in Bangladesh, has been attacked, the ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness) has said. A court in Bangladesh is expected to hear the case on December 3. 

In a post on X, Radharaman Das, the spokesperson for ISKCON, said, "Please pray for Advocate Ramen Roy. His only 'fault' was defending Chinmoy Krishna Prabhu in court. Islamists ransacked his home and brutally attacked him, leaving him in the ICU, fighting for his life".

Many lawyers in Bangladesh, however, have denied any such event.

Last month too, there were claims on social media and a few news outlets that a lawyer defending Chinmoy Krishna Das was killed. But investigations revealed that the murdered lawyer, Saiful Islam, was an assistant public prosecutor and he was not defending Chinmoy Das.

The post from Radharaman Das read:

Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari, a prominent former leader of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) in Bangladesh, was arrested in Dhaka last month after protests by the Hindu community in Rangpur, demanding stronger legal protections for minority groups. He has been accused of sedition and was denied bail by a Dhaka court on Tuesday.

Bangladesh has seen widespread political violence and protests over minority rights since the ouster of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

Amid attacks on minority Hindus in the neighbouring coutry, Radharaman Das had earlier posted on X that two disciples of Chinmoy Krishna Das have gone missing in Chattogram after a second Hindu monk, Shyam Das Prabhu, was arrested.

India has condemned the arrest and urged Bangladeshi authorities to ensure the safety and security of Hindus and other minorities. 

The arrest has also been strongly criticised by Indian religious leaders and members of the civil society.

Protest rallies have been held in West Bengal and several other staes that share border with Bangladesh.

In Tripura, the criticism has taken the form of boycott. Hotels and restaurants have decided not to accept bookings from tourists from Bangladesh, the top association of the travel sector has said.

Earlier today, more than 50 protesters allegedly entered the premises of the Bangladeshi mission in Tripura capital Agartala, leading to panic among the officials and staff at the complex. India has described the incident as "deeply regrettable".

Advocate Defending Hindu Priest In Bangladesh Attacked, Says ISKCON

A 27-year-old woman in the US who killed and ate a cat has been sentenced to one year in jail after a furious judge slammed her for the stomach-turning act. According to the New York Post, Allexis Ferrell committed the gruesome act in August outside her home in Ohio. A bodycam footage from police officers who reached her house showed the 27-year-old on all fours outdoors eating the cat as horrified neighbours looked on. "What did you do? Why did you kill the cat?" a police officer is heard asking the woman in the clip. &nbsp;
On Monday, Stark Country Common Pleas Judge Frank Forchione called Ferrell a national embarrassment. "You've embarrassed this county. You've embarrassed this nation. More importantly, you've embarrassed yourself," the judge said, per the <a class="sp_lnk2" href="https://nypost.com/2024/12/02/us-news/disgusted-judge-puts-away-woman-who-ate-cat-in-stomach-turning-video-youve-embarrassed-this-nation/" rel="noindex,nofollow">outlet</a>.&nbsp;
"To me, you present quite a danger to our community. This is repulsive to me. I mean, that anyone would do this to an animal. And an animal's like a child. I don't know if you understand that or not. I can't express the disappointment, shock, disgust that this crime has brought to me. I don't know what could prompt anyone to want to eat a cat," Mr Forchione continued.&nbsp;
The judge sentenced Ferrell to one year in jail after she pleaded guilty to a felony charge of animal cruelty. According to the Post, her one-year sentence will be added to a separate 18-month sentence she is facing for two previous crimes including a theft in 201 and a child endangerment case from last year.&nbsp;
Stark County Prosecutor Chelsea Small called the cat incident disturbing. "It's one of the most disturbing cases that I've seen as a prosecutor," she said.&nbsp;

Ferrell's attorney Stephen Kandel, however, said that that shocking video makes it clear that the 27-year-old "has an issue with drugs and alcohol, through her evaluation, through her past history". He added that he has arranged for his client to undergo inpatient treatment after her release.
Notably, Ferrell's case became a part of online presidential campaign chatter after Donald Trump and JD Vance claimed that Haitian immigrants in Springfield were eating local pets. Later, officials clarified that Ferrell is not an immigrant and her case is not tied to that claim. She was born in Ohio and graduated from Canton McKinley High School in 2015.

US Woman Jailed For Killing, Eating Cat: "You've Embarrassed This Nation"

Four months after Ukraine's offensive on the Russian region of Kursk, text messages from soldiers the <a class="sp_lnk2" href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn4x9gz4ylwo" rel="noindex,nofollow">BBC</a> has been receiving, paints a bleak picture.

The soldiers are encumbered with fatigue and strained with sleeplessness because of terrifying 3,000 kg glide bombs. And now, as the winter stings, the only silver lining they can see amidst the grey - Donald Trump's inauguration.

The Ukrainian soldiers have lost their morale and the war isn't even about capturing anymore. It is about holding, and the soldiers say, "we're struggling a bit with that."

While both Russia and Ukraine await the president-elect Trump taking office, the latter is trying to hold maximum territory until Trump's inauguration. "The main task facing us is to hold the maximum territory until Trump's inauguration and the start of negotiations," Dmytro said. "In order to exchange it for something later. No-one knows what."

The one thing that remains constant apart from the immense pressure from the enemy is the loss of motivation.

With the war having been escalated, now the US, UK and France have all permitted Ukraine to use long-range weapons inside Russia, but that didn't do much for their spirits. "We live and fight here and now. And missiles fly somewhere else", Dmytro added.

The soldiers said that even if Atacms and Storm Shadow missiles proved effective somewhere, these successes hardly mean anything in the trenches. "We don't talk about missiles. In the bunkers we talk about family and rotation. About simple things", Marko said.

Regarding the North Korean troops set to join the Russian side, the soldiers BBC spoke with seemed to have no contact with. "I haven't seen or heard anything about Koreans, alive or dead," Andriy said. 

The soldiers have been told to capture at least one North Korean soldier with documents. Apparently, there are rewards such as drones and leaves for anyone who successfully captures a North Korean soldier.

Ukrainian soldiers will hold out at Kursk for "as long as it is feasible from the military point of view", since it is reaping military and political rewards for them and also since the situation in Kursk and heavy losses for Russia "annoys Putin".

A woman passed racist comments at a celebrated wedding photographer and his Indian-American family while they were in a shuttle bus of United Airlines at the Los Angeles Airport last week.
<a class="sp_lnk2" href="https://www.instagram.com/ptaufiqphotography/" target="_blank" rel="noindex,nofollow noopener">Pervez Taufiq</a> was accompanied by his wife and their three children when they arrived in Los Angeles from Cancun. The woman, who was on the same flight as Mr Taufiq's family, boarded the same bus to the terminal.
"Mortified, we just went through this. This lady was harassing our son on the flight, unbeknownst to us, asking him if he was Indian and making comments. When we landed in LA and got on the transfer bus, she told our son to 'shut up', I told her she didn't have a right to speak to my son that way and her husband got in my face trying to tell me to not speak to his wife," Mr Taufiq wrote on Instagram and shared a video of the entire incident.
In the video, the photographer expressed his outrage over the incident, saying his "blood is boiling right now".
"I honestly can't even believe that something like this is a real thing. We were just having an altercation with this lady who was giving us a really hard time telling the kids to 'Shut Up', I lost it and said, you know, you don't have a right to talk to my kids like that."
The situation escalated after the woman verbally attacked him and said, "Your family is from India, you have no respect, you have no rules, you think you can push everyone, push, push, push... That's what you think you are. You guys are f*****g crazy."
In response, Mr Taufiq asked if she wanted him to have "more curry". To this, she said, "I am going to record your f******g tandoori a**... your tandoori stinky a**."
As Mr Taufiq asked the security personnel to remove her, she interrupted him and said, "He does not care that I am a racist, you are racist towards me. I am American."
"So are we," he replied to her.
She reacted, "You are not American... Not originally no, you are from...India."
Mr Taufiq insisted he was born in America.
In his post, Mr Taufiq thanked the airline and said the lady was taken "off the bus ultimately and a few fellow passengers stood up for us."
"Blown away these types of people still exist," he added.
Speaking with <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/12/02/us-news/wedding-photographer-and-family-shocked-by-sickening-insults-from-fellow-united-passenger/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow,noindex noopener">The New York Post</a>, Mr Taufiq, who grew up in Boston, said he first interacted with her during the flight.
Mr Taufiq believed the woman was "clearly" drunk at the time of the incident.
He and his wife work as photographers at events, including over 200 weddings per year, worldwide.

Brazil Prisoner's Desperate Escape Attempt Leaves Him Stuck In Prison Wall

दुबई में भारतीय गैंगस्टरों के बीच कथित रूप से पहली बार गैंगवॉर की खबरें सोशल मीडिया पर फैल रही हैं. ये दावा एक सोशल मीडिया पोस्ट के जरिए किया गया है, जो कुख्यात गैंगस्टर रोहित गोदारा से जुड़े अकाउंट से शेयर हुआ है. इस पोस्ट के जरिए गैंगस्टर लॉरेंस बिश्नोई के करीबी जोरा सिद्धू उर्फ सिप्पा की हत्या की जिम्मेदारी ली गई है.
पोस्ट में कहा गया है कि दुबई में जोरा सिद्धू की गला रेतकर हत्या की गई है. आरोप है कि बिश्नोई के निर्देश पर गैंग के लिए सिद्धू हैंडलर का काम कर रहा था और दुबई में बैठकर कनाडा और अमेरिका में कई लोगों को धमकियां दे रहा था. पोस्ट में दावा किया गया है कि सिद्धू ने पहले जर्मनी में गोदारा के एक साथी की हत्या करवाने की कोशिश की थी, जिस कारण यह 'बदला' लिया गया.
सोशल मीडिया पोस्ट में क्या कहा गया पोस्ट में कहा गया है कि आज दुबई में लॉरेंस का जोरा सिद्धू (सिप्पा) गला रेतकर मार दिया गया. यह काम हमने करवाया है. दुबई में बैठकर वह कनाडा और अमेरिका में धमकियां दे रहा था. जो दुबई को सुरक्षित समझते हैं, समझ लें अगर हमारे दुश्मन हैं तो कहीं भी सुरक्षित नहीं. इसमें रोहित गोदारा के अलावा गोल्डी बराड़, वीरेंद्र चारण, महेंद्र सरन डेलाना और विक्की पहलवान कोटकपूरा का भी जिक्र किया गया है. ये सभी कथित तौर पर उसी गैंग के सदस्य बताए गए हैं, जिसने इस हमले की जिम्मेदारी ली है.&nbsp;
भारतीय सुरक्षा एजेंसियों की नजर&nbsp; पोस्ट में आगे चेतावनी देते हुए कहा गया है कि पुलिस हर जगह नहीं पहुंच सकती, लेकिन हम पहुंचेंगे. जो भी विरोध करेगा, तैयार रहे. हालांकि दुबई पुलिस की ओर से अब तक इस कथित हत्या की आधिकारिक पुष्टि नहीं की गई है. कई सुरक्षा विशेषज्ञों के अनुसार दुबई जैसे अत्यंत निगरानी वाले शहर में इस तरह की वारदात होना असामान्य माना जाता है, इसलिए आधिकारिक पुष्टि का इंतजार महत्वपूर्ण है.&nbsp;
भारतीय सुरक्षा एजेंसियां भी इस मामले पर नजर बनाए हुए हैं. हालांकि जब तक दुबई पुलिस द्वारा कोई स्पष्ट जानकारी नहीं दी जाती, तब तक यह मामला केवल सोशल मीडिया दावों पर आधारित माना जा रहा है.&nbsp;
