Bangladesh Ex-PM Sheikh Hasina, Awami League React After Death Sentence Verdict | Spotlight | N18G

Bangladesh’s International Crimes Tribunal found deposed Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina guilty of crimes against humanity linked to last year’s student protests, and sentenced her to death. The court ruled that Hasina ordered lethal crackdowns on demonstrators, including close-range shootings at Dhaka University. Tried in absentia, Hasina dismissed the proceedings as illegitimate and claimed the verdict was “pre-ordained.” Prosecutors brought five charges, supported by testimony from a former police chief who turned state witness. Dhaka remains on high alert, with armoured vehicles, citywide checkpoints, and nearly half of the capital’s police force deployed. As Bangladesh heads toward elections next year, the ruling party has intensified political tensions and fears of unrest.
