Information given on social media
“Meanwhile, bad news has come: two celibates who took prasad for Chinmoy Prabhu were arrested while returning to the temple and Chinmoy Prabhu’s secretary is also missing. Please pray for them,” Radharaman said in a social media post on Friday night. Do it.”
Earlier, Radharaman had posted, “Another celibate Shri Shyam Das Prabhu arrested by Chattogram Police today.” Radharaman posted on X on Saturday, “Does he look like a terrorist? The innocent celibates of ISKCON of Bangladesh should be released. The arrest of the celibates of ISKCON is extremely shocking and disturbing.”

Chinmay Das was arrested on Monday
His comments come in the backdrop of reports of the arrest of three more ISKCON celibates, days after the arrest of spiritual leader Chinmoy Das. Chinmoy Das, the spokesperson of Bangladesh-based Sanatani Jagran Jot, was arrested on Monday at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka when he was on his way to Chittagong to participate in a rally. A Chittagong court on Tuesday refused to grant him bail and sent him to jail.
Bangladesh made this big claim
Bangladesh told the UN forum on minority issues that the arrest of a Hindu leader in Dhaka has been “misreported” and that he has been arrested on specific charges. He claimed that there has been no planned attack on minorities in the country.
