DHAKA: Protests erupted on Tuesday in southwestern Bangladesh after a mechanic allegedly tortured a 13-year-old former employee to death with an air compressor, just weeks after widespread outrage over another sickening child killing.
Hundreds of protesters took to the streets of the city of Khulna to demand justice for Mohammad Rakib, who died late on Monday after the employer forced the compressor tube into the boy’s rectum and turned on the machine.
