Protesters took to the streets across Bangladesh on Tuesday to demand death penalty for the killers of a 13-year-old boy as anger mounted over the sickening lynching of the boy which was captured on video and then went viral. Bangladeshi police have now arrested five people over the July 8 killing of Samiul Alam Rajon, who was tied to a pole and then subjected to a brutal assault in which he pleaded for his life. Thousands of demonstrators held similar protests on Monday, venting their anger at police for not doing enough to hunt down the killers.
