The state-owned broadcaster of Germany, Deutsche Welle has been the new source in the race for deliberately whitewashing the Islamist onslaught on minority Hindus in Bangladesh.
DW News published a video on Monday about the attacks on the Hindu community in the Islamic Republic by violent Muslim mobs and accused Indians of providing disinformation on social media.
“Violent anti-government protests in Bangladesh have fueled many false claims of attacks against the nation’s Hindu minority. Here’s what’s been circulating online,” read the caption of a 2-minute 29-second video shared by it.
DW News highlighted an arson attack on the Hazrat Garib Shah Mazar Sharif in Bangladesh’s Jessore, which was shared as an attack on a Hindu temple on social media.
It alleged, ‘In this video, a Hindu temple in Bangladesh is allegedly burning. The video has over 280,000 views, but it’s false. Videos of alleged burning Hindu temples or houses were shared and viewed thousands of times during the deadly protests in Bangladesh. A lot of such attacks have actually been happening in Bangladesh, but not every claim is true’.
The national broadcaster of Germany selected an expert named Thomas Kean to suggest that the motives behind attacks on Hindu minorities are unclear. “These attacks have been reported, particularly in India, as being religiously motivated. And it’s not clear that that’s the case,” Kean was quoted as saying.
However, DW News concluded that most attacks on Hindus were politically motivated due to the reputation of Sheikh Hasina’s Awami League as protector of Hindus.
This shows that the international media houses showcase false information about the attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh.
