Bodies of 29 leaders of the Awami League and their family members were recovered across violence-hit Bangladesh on Tuesday after Sheikh Hasina quit as Prime Minister and left for India amid protests by students over a controversial quota system that spiralled into widespread calls for the 76-year-old leader's resignation.
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?

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 that left over 1,500 dead and 25,000 injured. With 81 witnesses and encrypted communications cited as evidence, the charges mark a dramatic turn in Bangladesh’s political history. Hasina resigned in August and fled to India amid mass protests.
