Bangladesh to host Zakir Naik with Red-Carpet

Following the 2016 Dhaka Holey Artisan Bakery terror attack, the Sheikh Hasina government had banned Zakir Naik’s Peace TV. 

The decision was taken after one of the attackers had said that he and his associates were inspired by the rabid speeches made by Naik.

Now, the Bangladesh government, led by Muhammad Yunus,



is set to roll out the red carpet to Naik. This is yet another sign of how radical the country is becoming, following the ouster of Sheikh Hasina. 

The Yunus government has approved a month-long visit by Naik, which would begin on November 28 and end on December 20. During this period, Naik would travel across the country and deliver speeches.
