The body of Nura Pagla was exhumed and burned—who is responsible for this anarchy?
The events following the death of Nura Pagla, a once-discussed and controversial figure in Bangladesh, have sparked intense debate across the country. This notorious person, who claimed to be Imam Mahdi, used to propagate various distorted and erroneous doctrines contrary to the core teachings of Islam during his lifetime. The anger of the general public had been building up against him for a long time due to his insulting the Al-Quran as 'bare leaf' or worthless, attempts to mislead Muslims, and spreading religious misconceptions. After his death, due to his grave-breaking activities, strange behavior of his followers, and ignoring religious restrictions, that anger finally exploded and took the form of horrific incidents such as taking the body out of the grave and burning it in a fire.
