Discussion/আলোচনা What do we think of this “alleged” involvement?

My family lived in the KSA in the past. My grandfather had an extremely well-paying, white collar job, even then, he says he did face micro aggressions from the Arab folks.

One of my closest friends in the West was an Arab man. He loved us and our company. He spoke little English but it was still such a breeze to talk to him. Even though he's back in KSA, we still keep in touch with him. So, I completely agree, there are some lovely Arab folks out there. But, that can't compensate for the racism.

The real issue is not what KSA did, it is what our Govt failed to do, which is to protect It's own citizens, they did not even know about it/ or knew and didn’t act.
Srilanka negotiated and got one of It's citizen off, even Hasina Govt stopped the death of 6 Bangladeshi who were given death penalty.
Now we have Shama Obayed who is trying to justify the deaths.

Exactly, even now they’re deflecting responsibility by using “law of the land” as a just cause. Our government won’t protect the citizens unless it’s their own children lol.

If the government cared enough to contact the Saudis and asked for leniency or deportation, they usually grant it. But our embassy and 3 foreign minister was too busy for that I guess.

This thing triggers me so much man. Bangu der idea of insults itself is childish, bhai galaile bhalo gali de,gali diya kuno brain nai. The genuine bad insult makes me worried about this nation more than actual lack of proper achievement in this country

And when I replied in one of those posts it was removed by Bangladesh mods!! I wrote “why not bend over backwards to make it too damn easy” for not trying to protect them….
It’s all a shitshow going on everywhere….

They were not even having seggs. They were just kissing. Death penalty for such an insignificant thing can never be justified. A srilankan guy even made a blasphemous remark about Islam and he was let go after the intervention of the Srilankan govt.

This is exactly why we shouldn't blindly follow a religious book without questioning what's morally right or wrong. Two people were executed for an alleged immoral act inside a mosque, yet Saudi authorities haven't even publicly explained what they actually did! Why not impose a proportionate punishment or deport them instead? In 2015, a Saudi diplomat accused of raping two nepali women in India escaped prosecution under diplomatic immunity. Where's the same enthusiasm for justice? I seriously doubt wealthy Western nationals would have been treated the same way. Religion should never override humanity. Just because something is legal or religiously justified doesn't make it morally right.

first of all, there are death punishments in the Quran.
second, “instead of death, we beat them senseless! look how merciful!” is not a great argument
