Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary General Mia Golam Porwar has strongly condemned a shooting inside a mosque in Khulna during Fajr prayers on Sunday. In a statement to the media, he expressed deep concern over the attack in which the mosque committee secretary and another worshipper were shot. The incident occurred around 5:30 a.m. at the West Zone Power Distribution Company Jame Mosque on BL College Road in Daulatpur.

Porwar described the attack as a heinous and alarming act, saying that such violence in a sacred place reflects a serious deterioration of law and order.
