A 14-year-old Hindu schoolgirl was brutally stabbed to death by a Muslim man in Bangladesh after she rejected his advances.

According to media reports, Nila Roy, a tenth grade pupil and daughter of Narayan Roy, of Manikganj was being taken to a hospital by her brother Alok Roy when they were stopped by the accused Mizanur Rahman, 20. who had been stalking the minor for some time.

"On Sunday night, Nila was suffering from a breathing problem so I was taking her to a hospital. But on our way to the hospital, Mizan stopped our rickshaw, threatened us with two knives and took my sister hostage. We could not say a word and Mizan took my sister to a dark alley and later stabbed her indiscriminately and fled the scene,” Alok said.
