Hundreds of Bangladeshis have staged protests and scuffled with police this week after a video of a disadvantaged woman being attacked was posted online.
Human rights groups say abuses against women are only getting worse.

Finally a good idea.. Death for rapists!
দেরি করে পেলেছেন, খবরটা আরো দ্রুত দেয়া উচিত ছিলো
The world is messed up
You didn’t mention about the rapists who are the student wing of present government. So it hasn’t increased during Covid 19. Its happening for last few years. Do you know AJ, what happened to the rapist of election day 30.12.2018?
Please tell me what happened. I don’t know. I’m also Bangladeshi.
@Nuder Rahmanইদানিং দেশে রেপের সংখ্যা বেড়েছে, বেশিরভাগ রেপিস্ট ছাত্রলীগ,যুবলীগ ইত্যাদি,

Saidul

Late news
who cares
Fake news…
The people of Bangladesh, I assume. Don’t like it? Don’t click on the vid
Brains were out of stock in the making of you
You cared enough to comment
@mark hart Actually, we’re not only protesting about rape but also our government. Bangladesh is one party state. We don’t want our country to be North Korea.
Only in India there is state sponsored support for rapists by sanghi fascists
India,pakistan,Bangladesh,most asian and Muslim country suffers alot from these cases!
@tinaxtony ? You should go to school
You are troll stop spreading fake information
MF Ver.02 pro I finished school a long time ago so no I don’t What you need to realise is. In countries where women are second class citizens men feel it’s ok to brutalise them and the worst offenders live in countries where the religion of peace rules Now I can’t help it if stupid people like you refuse to acknowledge that or try to tell me differently because I’m not listening to you see
@Sharnie Gujjar no. Our government is showing this to hide the truth. Actually, we’re not only protesting about rape but also our government. Bangladesh is one party state. We don’t want our country to be North Korea.Sheikh Mujibur Rahman who gave us freedom from Pakistan, his daughter Sheikh Hasina is ruling since years.
@Sharnie Gujjar Lol stop kidding yourself. Rape in Pakistan is widespread and no different from India & Bangladesh. On top of that, a woman got raped in front of her child in a car recently and guess what? A high level police officer decided to blame her clothing. Can you imagine how that statement would be received in India or Bangladesh?
Its the ruling political parties goons. They have become the kings of the country.
Islam is garbage.
গণতন্ত্র নিপাত যাক, কে কে একমত?
Most of rape is done by dictator Lady hitler hasina’s party Awami dog league
Cut organs in public
thanks for the info al jazeera
অশ্লীল পোশাক পরে মাগীবাদী দের প্রতিবাদ 😂😂
oshlil poshak na oshlil apnar monovab nijer chokh shamlay rakhen apnader moto manushikotar karonei rape hoy

Troll
hasina should be thrown in jail
0:17 she’s adorable I’m so proud of the youth standing up for justice and what’s right
Simp spotted :3
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for our sins, He was buried and resurrected on the third day.
Believe on Him to be saved.
Please learn what to write, when to write, and where to write at the right place and at the right time. This is not the the type of place to preach religious teachings of holy people!
As a Bangladeshi i feel shamed. I don’t know what should i say against this crime means rape.
But this case is very alarming for Bangladeshis girls at that moment. So i have a request to those popular journal , especially Al jazzera please do something for our young generation and make them easier to protest loudly against this rape as well as government.
Sonar bangla..to na hobe to na khobe..baaannnglaaaa
@vivek kumar 5 trillion economy hobe na , hobe na , 23% gdp decreaseeeee, JAIII HINDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
@E India trash
I won’t complain about my life again. Ever. 5 year old raped?!😔
Rise your hand to support the women and death sentence law need to pass against rape.. Shame on the person who allures his sexual desire to the innocent girl is highly recomended to disable his ejection process through injection or stone ..
Ruling government should wake up and take every necessary steps to make safe our respected women…..
Get back to the kitchen!!
The real culprits here are the miscreants of the ruling party of Bangladesh. They are backed by a corrupt government and terrorize the common people and brutally rape them. World leaders need to look at Bangladesh’s dictatorial government and its horrors.
you mean women in a Muslime country aren’t safe? come on, I don’t beleive. NOT
Bangladesh is seclur country from it birth
This country rank 14 in gender equality
Actually, we’re not only protesting about rape but also our government. Bangladesh is one party state. We don’t want our country to be North Korea.
Bangladesh have 30 million Hindus, 4 million Christians, 1 million Shikhs,12 million Buddhist, 50 thousand Bahai and few other religions and all others are Muslim. Bangladesh has a population of 160 million.
@Maliha Rahman lol 12 million Buddhist are u joking . Bangladesh have around of 1 million Buddhist get ur fact check .and Bangladesh is a semi democracy.
Seriously, how much rape goes on in India?
Why do they only show the poor side of Bangladesh 🤦🏻♂️
Poor side?
Rahat Alamgir
Let me guess ? Cause Bangladesh is a 3rd world country maybe ?
Shaikh Hasina is a lier.
At last aljazeera told true. Thanks aljazeera
It’s such a horrendous situation.. people can just walk away even if they commit rape and murder, simply beacuse they are connected with Awami league ( the ruling party for nearly 2 decades).
Awami league (the ruling party) needs to step down, they already crippled the nation.
You do realize rape counts were way low comparing with other rulling party ?
Dark Maniac
No they’re NOT ! They don’t even report the cases that’s why it seems so low
Shame on ruling party of BANGLADESH.
Ami tumake sudur budor
In UP Hatras, India Rape case, the victim family gets the punishment not the rapist.
@MF Ver.02 pro First of all You don’t represent everyone and Most of all Which Cult you are talking about?
@D Freak do you even represent anyone? You are just a jobless nobody
D Freak
No their race is different
D Freak
Mate you got no life , just shut your mouth and leave cause no body got time for you.
@MF Ver.02 pro I represent humans not animals like you and am utilizing my spare time to expose Cult Community.
Saludos a bangladesh también en bangladesh me conoce me alegra Así es que sería recíproco con ustedes les ayudaré ya no quería entrar en batalla porque le metí un flechazo a cantidad de centros se puede decir cante naciones con una sola flecha lo madrugó montón de países y ahora se lo voy a lanzar otra flecha sumar la cantidad de centros incluyendo contra de solución para los países donde paran matando mujeres no solamente mi ancla 19 Oriente diferentes países deben crear el Ministerio de la mujer así como mi patria Ah Y también crea no deben crear es el Ministerio de la mujer en bangladesh en diferentes países de medio oriente para que le defienda sus derechos no solamente un ministerio no me gusta burócratas el Ministerio de estar unificado a poder judicial fiscalía ayuda social no sé entidades que puedan atender inmediatamente a la mujer no como que me falta es que solamente atiende que te votan Como animal no las organizaciones gubernamentales deben estar unificada exclusivamente Para apoyar a la mujer inmediatamente incluyendo económicamente y más beneficios eso deben crear en bangladesh y también medio oriente así se podría poner más derechos a favor de ellas hagan eso de nuevo otra flecha para todos los países
afgan , pakistan , india and bangladesh can be called the rape belt
they have worst implementation of rules
‘Death penalty’ for rape is not a serious punishment. It’s a major disproportion. Especially given that women take these terms (sexual assault, rape) very lightly and can falsely accuse people or blackmail. Wanting ‘death’ for rape is based on pure feelings and emotions. Not on logical thoughts.
You do make a point, i am quite in favor of chemical castration as an alternative. What do you think of that?
@Mohd Khalid Khan hmmm
You are right but ordinary people don’t understand
@Mohd Khalid Khan it could be an effective deterrent. But there must be very solid evidence and strict regulatory laws to conform to and procedures to undergo before considering the implementation of the punishment. The extent of the punishment has to match the seriousness of the crime. It is not to be used freakishly.
Just another example of why Al Jazeera is such a good news channel for airing terrible injustices such as this.
CASTRATE THEM, CUT THEIR BALLS OFF. IT WORKS ON DOGS, SO IT SHOULD ON MONSTERS.
হাসিনা তো বেশ্যা ও কি জবাব দিবে 😁
Most of the rape cases are false… That means these people are working on agendas.
All problem bangladesh one woman prime minister sheek hassina she every criminal PROTECT
Shame Bangladesh Shame on you
Prime minister sheek hassina own party bd awamilige other part student leuge should be rape murder every criminal part this party all in all criminal give protection prime minister sheek hassina
What’s the government doing . No rules and regulations. Shame . Such a low act
Problem is law.. only 14 year imprisoned for them …now people are asking death for culprit which I believe will soon adopt
Rapists country in the world
Yuck. Fear not. God is cleansing Earth right now as I speak. The virus will become more and more virulent. Then other disasters will follow. Your country will be flooded.
RIP Bangladesh
WE ARE LEGION
Agreed & Liked. Rightful Protest.
Castrate rapists at the very least.
We demand from government a capital punishment for raping
Al jazeerah should send more journalist in Bangladesh to close monitoring this without election government,,,
Rapist are not humans they are monsters…death must be observed to the criminals commited rapes..
Rape must stop
What has happened to this world…hathras n many others in india…n now..this bangladesh…!!!
Justice is dead for ordinary people in Bangladesh. The Fascists government has done nothing but bringing down society’s values and morals.
Where are u femenist?
Look I understand punishing the people who have committed such disgusting crimes should be punished , but there always must be due process before action can or should be taken.
That how I feel sad in BD the only reason
We want Rape free Bangladesh. Also our demand to Government to take acton imadiate.
People have to take justice on rape criminals in their village. Because they are no fusion government on this warefear planet earth.
ফেন্সি শেখ হাসিনা সরকার বোট চোর হাসিনা
Bangladesh is not a country. Its a worlds biggest brothel
It’s I.n.d
Muslim or non muslim country condition is same
Thank you for covering this
Government already proposal new law to supreme Court.. let’s see what happens
Why go to the police?Why seek justice from a judicial system that has failed you?Take matters into your own hands people.If you know a rapist kill him.Everyone in the protest thank you for your courage.Bangladesh is a Muslim majority country right?Stone the RAPISTS to death.Thats justified according to the religion they use to defend RAPISTS.
Now Cult Community is currently out of service!
I love aljazira channel. This channel always shows true story regarding Bangladesh.
Hasina is not government.
Bangladesh justice isn’t rape.
New Law Implement in Bangladesh
Death Sentence for Rapist
SK HASHINAS FASCISTS GOVT IS A MAFIA AND BIG TIME INDIAN AGENT AND WORKING WITH RAW
SK HASHINA IS A FAKE MUSLIM
Protestors will be labeled Pakistani and then hanged 😂
To get actual change they have to protest against the government corruption.
I’m totally anti feminists.
But mistreatment of women as a systemic function of any society makes me sick. Those men responsible should be duly prosecuted and hung if guilty.
The leaders and workers of our illegitimate government are committing rape, kidnapping, murder, torture, corruption and extortion in the country for the sake of power. The people of Bangladesh today have become a kind of helpless to the terrorists of the ruling party.
The government has completely destroyed the law and order of the country.
I wish victims weren’t blamed in Bangladesh. Victim blaming starts in the society. No one deserves to get raped even if that person is the worst.
If the Families and relatives of the victim spoke out and protested without any fear of judgement by this so called society, the victim wouldn’t be so vulnerable to such situation.
Every assault are done by Ruling party stalwart.
BCL leaders are involved in rape
man cross the limit and very soon allaah. Give us punishment… in bangladesh… so call muslim country but here need Islamic law…..the authority fail of all sector……. allaah protect us….and give us imam al mehdi…very soon….evry where fitna…injustice…. killing…
Bangladesh justice system is party-centric, there is no justice in the country, we are being held hostage by a terrorist called Awami League.
Anybody that hurts children deserves to die
Same on you being a Islamic country you can’t change the situation. 😡😡
Why don’t you impose Sharia laws
Please Alzazzeera everyday upload Bangladesh news.
Thanks a lot
