Dhaka condemns desecration of Quran in The Hague

Dhaka strongly condemned the recent act of desecrating the holy Quran by a far-right activist in The Hague.

A press release was issued by the foreign ministry to this end on Thursday.

The press release said Dhaka also expressed concern over such heinous incident and rejected any act of insulting the sacred values and religious symbols of the Muslims - for that matter of all religions - all over the world under any circumstances.

Bangladesh urged all concerned to put an end to such unwarranted provocations and Islamophobia for the sake of harmony and peaceful coexistence, it read.
