In Bangladesh, a Hindu man's Facebook account was hacked and a post was made against Prophet Muhamed which angered local Muslim population.
The man was arrested by the police. While the man was in police custody, the Muslims gathered as a mob and started attacking the police in an attempt to overpower them and kill the man. The police had to fire at the mob in self-defense and at least 4 people were killed.
The police has also detained three people for hacking the Hindu man's Facebook account.
The violence was second such incident since 2016 in the Muslim-majority country when protesters attacked Hindu temples in eastern Brahmanbaria town after a blasphemous Facebook post.
