Overview

• Kabir killed his parents at their Memari home in East Burdwan before traveling over 100 km to Bongaon and stabbing four madrasa staff in a fit of rage.
• The victims, two teachers and two support staff at a madrasa orphanage, were injured with a machete police say he purchased online.
• A crowd of about 100 people then tried to storm Bongaon Police Station to seize Kabir, leading to ten arrests and ongoing raids to detain other participants.
• The court remanded Kabir for three days to allow investigators to probe his mental health and potential extremist links while authorities maintain there was no communal motive.
• Investigators are reviewing his browsing history and computer files for jihadi literature searches and possible plans to flee to Bangladesh to aid the Rohingya.
