One case was filed by a victim and another one by the law enforcers, Nazmul said.

Hefajat-e-Islam followers on Wednesday vandalised several Hindu houses in Sunamganj as a Hindu youth had "criticised the party's Joint Secretary General Maulana Mamunul Haque on social media."

Young Hindu man Jhumon from Noagaon village made a Facebook post on Tuesday night. As the post went viral, police detained him with the help of locals on the same night.
