Chinmoy Das lawyer alleges lack of political will behind delayed release

Defense counsel for Bangladeshi Hindu monk Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari said Monday that a lack of political will is prolonging his client's detention, with new charges repeatedly stacking up despite bail in earlier cases. Das, arrested November 25, 2024 on sedition charges, has six cases filed against him, his lawyer said, sparking violent clashes after his arrest.
