Ousted Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina Vows December Return From Exile

The Hindu - International · world

Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, currently in exile in India, has declared her intention to return to her country in December, "at any cost." Sentenced to death for crimes against humanity following a deadly crackdown on protesters during her government, Hasina denies wrongdoing and rejects the trial's legitimacy. She stated her commitment to returning to her homeland, even if it means facing arrest, imprisonment, torture, or death. Hasina fled to India after student-led protests forced her from power in 2024.
