Henry Sawpon

Henry Sawpon, a Bangladeshi poet, was arrested on May 14, 2019, after a local Catholic priest filed a complaint with Kotwali police, accusing Sawpon of hurting religious sentiments through his social media posts. Sawpon was released on bail the following day. His case has since gone dormant, and there have been no updates regarding his trial. He has been waiting for trial with no clear resolution in sight.
