A Bangladeshi group, Blogger and Online Activist Network (BOAN), initiated the 2013 Shahbag
31_25
protests that sought capital punishment for the Islamist leader and war criminal Abdul Quader Molla
31_26
as well as the removal of Jamaat-e-Islami from politics. Islamist groups responded by organising
31_27
protests calling for the execution of "atheist bloggers" accused of insulting Islam, and the
31_28
introduction of a blasphemy law. Many atheist bloggers who supported the Shahbag protests came
