The 2012 Ramu violence refers to a series of attacks on Buddhist monasteries, shrines, and houses of Buddhist inhabitants in Ramu Upazila[1] in Cox's Bazar District[2] in Bangladesh by local mobs on the midnight past 29 September 2012. The mobs destroyed 12 Buddhist temples and monasteries and 50 houses in reaction to a tagging of an image depicting the desecration of a Quran on the timeline of a fake Facebook account under a Buddhist male name.[3][4] The actual posting of the photo was not done by the Buddhist who was falsely slandered.[5] The Buddhist was innocent of the accusation.[6] The violence later spread to Ukhia Upazila in Cox's Bazar District[7] and Patiya Upazila in Chittagong District where Buddhist monasteries and Hindu temples were targeted for attacks.
An estimated 25,000 people[8] participated in the violence directed at Buddhists and over 300 people were arrested in connection to the attacks.
