Sheikh Hasina Sentenced To Death For Crimes Against Humanity In Bangladesh Student Crackdown

Bangladesh’s International Crimes Tribunal has sentenced former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to death for crimes against humanity — holding her responsible for ordering a deadly crackdown on a massive student-led protest movement last year that ultimately toppled her Awami League government. Hasina, who fled to New Delhi in August 2024, was tried in absentia. Two other top officials — former home minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal and ex-police chief Chowdhury Abdullah Al-Mamun — face similar charges. Security in Dhaka remains volatile, with military deployment and shoot-at-sight orders as the country braces for unrest.
