‘Let her bring the best lawyers’: Bangladesh ‘welcomes’ Hasina’s possible return, says she must face justice
"We welcome her announcement as we want to ensure justice," Zahed Ur Rahman said, according to local media.

Sheikh Hasina said there has been no communication with the authorities in Dhaka over her proposed return. The tribunal also ordered the confiscation of her properties and sentenced former Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal to death while awarding a five-year jail term to former police chief Chowdhury Abdullah Al-Mamun.
Hasina said that the death penalty awarded to her in Bangladesh is a result of an "illegal, unconstitutional, and politically motivated process."
The report, titled "Human Rights Violations and Abuses related to the Protests of July and August 2024 in Bangladesh," was published on February 12, 2025.
In her message, Sheikh Hasina said that the verdict of the people of West Bengal is a "clear reflection of their deep trust and admiration for Suvendu Adhikari’s strong and people-oriented leadership."
The United States Department of State strongly rejected the allegations of the government's involvement in former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's resignation, terming them 'laughable' and 'absolutely false' claims.
Hasina was compelled to step down on August 5 following the student protests, which saw more than 500 people killed.
A chapter in Bangladesh’s history has ended. The family which led the fight for freedom from the shackles of Pakistan and headed it for most part of its democratic phase will no longer have any role in its future.
Taking to Instagram Stories, Hina posted a graphic picture which shows many people lying down on the streets, with burning houses all around.
Adecade has happened in the last couple of weeks: a discredited quota system has been removed, hundreds of lives have been lost and Sheikh Hasina, notorious for her dictatorial traits, resigned and fled Bangladesh.
