NEW DELHI, Mar 26: At least four people were killed in Bangladesh’s Chittagong on Friday after police fired rubber bullets at protesters during a demonstration against the visit by prime minister Narendra Modi, a police official said.
“We had to fire teargas and rubber bullets to disperse them as they entered a police station and carried out extensive vandalism,” Rafiqul Islam, the police official said.
Protests against PM Modi’s visit also flared in the capital Dhaka, where dozens of people, including two journalists, were injured in clashes with police, witnesses said.
There were no immediate words who organized the protests against the visit of the Indian prime minister.
