Evening news wrap: Bangladesh opens trial of ex-PM Sheikh Hasina; Severe floods in Assam disrupt life, and more
Sunday, 1 June 2025 India-Pakistan ceasefire brokered by the US faces scrutiny as Congress demands clarity on losses and defence preparedness. Meanwhile, Bangladesh initiates the trial of ex-PM Sheikh Hasina for alleged protest crackdown. Assam grapples with severe floods, prompting large-scale rescues, while PSG's Champions League victory is overshadowed by violence and arrests in France.
Former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has officially been charged with crimes against humanity for her alleged role in the brutal crackdown on student protesters during the 2024 uprising. Prosecutors accuse Hasina of directly ordering state security forces to carry out coordinated attacks...
Former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been sentenced to six months in jail by the International Crimes Tribunal for contempt of court. The verdict comes after a leaked audio call revealed Hasina allegedly mocking the judiciary and referencing a “license to kill” 227 people during the 2024 protests. The sentencing marks the first official ruling since her ouster and escape last year following mass student-led demonstrations. Former student leader Shamil Bulbul was also sentenced to two months. Defense lawyers call the charges politically motivated, while prosecutors hint at more charges to come.

Bangladesh interim leader Muhammad Yunus claims he asked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to block Sheikh Hasina’s online speeches — but Modi refused, saying, “It’s social media, you can’t control it.”
Yunus, who now leads Bangladesh after Hasina’s ouster, made this revelation during a talk at Chatham House in London.
As Hasina continues to address the Bangladeshi public from India, tensions rise, with Yunus accusing her of stirring unrest.
Meanwhile, Yunus’ own anti-India remarks and outreach to China have alarmed New Delhi.
Is Bangladesh heading into deeper turmoil? And is India taking a firm stand on digital freedom?

Bangladesh’s interim leader Muhammad Yunus has announced that national elections will be held in April 2026, following sustained domestic unrest and international pressure. The move comes after the dramatic ousting of long-time Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina last year, sparking political uncertainty and protests. As Bangladesh navigates its volatile transition, Yunus said the Election Commission will soon unveil a detailed roadmap. The announcement marks a crucial turning point in the country’s democratic journey and raises questions about stability, legitimacy, and the future political landscape.

At the FIFA Club World Cup final, held on U.S. soil at MetLife Stadium, Donald Trump’s unexpected and extended presence during Chelsea’s trophy ceremony triggered loud boos and raised eyebrows. The former president, who was slated to present the trophy, remained on stage far longer than expected—ignoring FIFA President Gianni Infantino’s subtle gestures to step away.
Players like Cole Palmer and Reece James looked visibly uncomfortable, with James even asking Trump, “Are you going to leave?” Fans saw Trump’s appearance as a tone-deaf intrusion into a historic sporting moment, particularly after Chelsea’s underdog 3-0 triumph over PSG. Critics have slammed it as a publicity stunt amid rising global disapproval of Trump’s foreign policy. The moment, meant to celebrate football’s growing appeal in the U.S., became a political spectacle that overshadowed the victory itself.
