Ousted Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina sentenced to death for crimes against humanity

Independent investigators such as Human Rights Watch have found Hasina to have committed human rights violations, so she isn’t innocent.

However, trial in absentia is not credible justice where she has not been given the right to defend herself and it should be in neutral territory due to bias. Therefore, I think a fairer process should be for Bangladesh to refer the case to the ICC and let the ICC investigate and hold her to account. She can defend herself to the ICC and if found guilty then no one can morally object to her being sentenced to death.

She is free to come to Bangladesh and defend herself. But, she probably won't as she knows she is likely to still be found guilty and get the death penalty.

Even if ICC gets involved, she is likely to be found guilty as well. All the formal evidences have been gathered.

Indian posters support him because Hasina was their nice little agent. Hasina was an Indian puppet. Hasina was benefiting India more than Bangladesh.

Anyway, who cares what the Indians think? This is a Bangladeshi matter and Bangladeshis are to decide this.
 
LOL. Sanghis wish Hasina would return to power and give India perks like before.

In reality, Hasina and her party are unlikely to return again. People of Bangladesh/young Bangladeshis are unlikely to allow that.

Hasina was literally 20 minutes away from getting beaten and killed by the mob. Mob was outside her residence when she fled.
Yes and mobs need to mercilessly suppressed for breaking laws..as you just said the thugs were about to lynch her...a democratically elected leader..she is within her rights to fire..there is no crime against humanity...only in lawless jungle desh like BD...would the real PM be tried..in other countries...these thugs should be imprisoned and then tried ..not hanged but jailed for breaking the law vandalism rioting and killing law enforcement officers
 
Yup. It is funny because most Bangladeshis do not care about sanghi opinions regarding BD politics.

They want Hasina back because Hasina was like Modi's pet dog (b*tch). Hasina was benefiting India and herself at the expense of Bangladesh.

A shameless and evil monster. Bangladesh must eradicate her party for good.
You contradict yourself in every post..if you don't care about sanghi opinion..why is your govt begging India to hand her over..you don't care .you don't beg. Just pass a ruling and enjoy your jehadi govt

Because she is Bangladeshi and a former PM, charged with serious crimes. Bangladeshi is asking to return the fugitive that has been hosted by the Indian government on Indian tax payer money, they aren't asking for an opinion.
 
I don't think she can get asylum in any other country other than India.

With these crimes against humanity charges, chances are almost zero.

Not sure why India are footing her bills. They should return Hasina to BD.
India is footing her bill because she is crucial for the growth of a peaceful prosperous rich and strong Bangladesh and be an ally of India in crushing the disease of Islamic terrorism . She is necessary to uphold a secular Bangladesh as enshrined in your constitution and for protecting the nation from the evil influence of Paksitani

Exactly...then they care about what sanghi opinion is...if it's for extradition..then it will happen else it will not happen. Or they can take matters in their own hand and deliver the punishment on Indian soil. In that latter case you show you don't care about sanghi opinion

Bangladesh urges India to hand over Sheikh Hasina after death sentence


Bangladesh's foreign ministry in a statement sought the handing over of former Prime Minister and “fugitive accused” Sheikh Hasina from India, after a tribunal's death sentence to the Awami League leader.

In a letter, the Bangladesh ministry cited an extradition agreement with India and said it was an “obligatory responsibility” for New Delhi to ensure Hasina's return to Bangladesh.

"Providing refuge to these individuals, who have been convicted of crimes against humanity, by any other country would be a highly unfriendly act and a disregard for justice,” the letter from the foreign ministry of Bangladesh read.

The ministry was referring to the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT-BD) observations from earlier today, finding Hasina and former and former interior minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal guilty on multiple counts over a crackdown on students in Bangladesh last year.

Apart from Hasina and Khan, former Inspector General of Police Chowdhury Abdullah Al-Mamun was also found guilty of committing "crimes against humanity".

Former PM Sheikh Hasina was ousted from Bangladesh following a mass uprising by students against the erstwhile government. Massive protests rocked the country in July last year, which eventually brought down her government and led to her ouster in August.

Ever since, Hasina has been in self-exile in India. According to her son Sajeeb Wazed, Hasina is at a secret safe house in Delhi, where India is providing her full security.

“I must add that I am deeply grateful to the Indian people for providing me with a safe haven this past year,” Hasina earlier wrote in emailed responses to HT.

The 78-year-old leader had even defied orders from the Bangladesh court, which had ordered her return from India to attend her trial about whether she ordered a deadly crackdown against a student-led uprising last year that eventually ousted her.

Reacting to the death sentence handed to her, Sheikh Hasina denied the accusations made against her in the court and said that the order was made by a "rigged tribunal established and presided over by an unelected government with no democratic mandate".

"They are biased and politically motivated. In their distasteful call for the death penalty, they reveal the brazen and murderous intent of extremist figures within the interim government to remove Bangladesh's last elected prime minister, and to nullify the Awami League as a political force," some of her remarks from a lengthy strongly-worded statement read.

Sheikh Hasina was found guilty on three counts – incitement, ordering killings, and failing to prevent atrocities during the crackdown on students in July last year.

The tribunal's ruling came months before Bangladesh is expected to hold its first election since Hasina’s ouster in February 2026.

Tear gas, batons, clashes: Bangladesh on boil after Sheikh Hasina verdict, 2 killed


Bangladesh was on the boil yet again as Awami League supporters clashed with their rivals following the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT)'s death sentence verdict for ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina for crimes against humanity during the students' uprising last year that toppled her government.

Demonstrators blocked several highways in Dhaka as they led marches and clashed with police, who were deployed on the streets of Dhaka and elsewhere in Bangladesh in anticipation of violence following the ICT verdict. Police had to use batons, sound grenades and tear gas in a bid to disperse the protesters, according to Bangladeshi media.

Videos surfaced on social media showing demonstrators being chased by police with batons and explosions being heard as Dhaka remained tense throughout the day.

Dhanmondi 32 area, where the house of Bangladesh's founding father and Hasina's father Sheikh Mujibur Rahman is located, remained tense as protesters attempted to march there and destroy the property, local media reported.

Supporters of the Awami League, which has been banned by the Muhammad Yunus-led interim regime for its role in the 2024 anti-government protests, clashed with their counterparts from Jatiya Chhatra Shakti, an organisation formed with the coordinators of the students' uprising.

Ahead of the ICT verdict on Monday, the Awami League had called a two-day nationwide bandh to protest against the ruling, which has been described by Hasina as "politically motivated".

The ICT found Hasina, the 78-year-old Awami League chief, currently living in exile in Delhi since her ouster on August 5 last year following massive anti-government protests, guilty on three charges: incitement to violence, issuing orders to kill protesters and failing to prevent atrocities during the student-led uprising.

Former Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan was also sentenced to death, while former IGP Chowdhury Abdullah Al-Mamun received five years in prison after becoming a state witness and pleading guilty.

The landmark ruling, arriving months ahead of parliamentary elections scheduled for early February, is expected to reshape Bangladesh's political landscape.

A defiant Hasina called the ruling "biased, politically motivated" and issued by a "rigged tribunal with no democratic mandate". On the other hand, Yunus praised the verdict, saying that no one, regardless of power, was above the law.

Following the verdict, Bangladesh has written to India to immediately return Hasina and Kamal for their alleged role in the deadly July crackdown on students' protests.

In response, New Delhi said it formally took note of the ICT ruling against Hasina, adding that it "remains committed to the best interests of the people of Bangladesh."

"As a close neighbour, India remains committed to the best interests of the people of Bangladesh, including in peace, democracy, inclusion and stability in that country. We will always engage constructively with all stakeholders to that end," the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said in a statement.

India isn't non-communal.

Rest of your opinion is just that, an opinion.

Don't try to distract from core issue...

How Bangladesh tribunal court not heard Respondent's side?

Why Bangladesh tribunal awarded judgement of death penalty in a hurry. It reflects that acting government and courts are hand in glow. Therefore this judgement is totally biased.

We all know what happened in kulbhushan Jadhav case, Pakistan court awarded punishment without giving him chance to put his defence. Then matter went to ICJ, where India wins the case
 
Shaikh Hasina developed Bangladesh economically and their economy was ahead of Pakistan. Under Sheikh Hasina government their growth rate was 5.78 and now under this communal govt. It is now 3.97
 
Bangladesh under Sheikh Hasina - Secular.
India under non-Modi government - Sickular

It is comical how agitated sanghis are feeling. This is a Bangladeshi matter and it is to be decided by Bangladeshis. Sanghis have no say.

India is unlikely to get another puppet in Bangladesh again. Deal with it. :inti

1. Agreed Sanghis have no say in Bangladeshi politics. But just like you Islamists comment on India 24*7 and obsessed with Modi, Rahul Gandhi, Bihar election (LOL) etc etc., we also sometime tend to take interest in minnow land.

2. Are you sure majority of Bangladeshis are against Sheikh Hasina? Most comments I have seen in social media from Bangladeshi people are very supportive of her. Heck, even in this forum, I have seen most BD posters except you and that @Mas-LFC aka FA cup guy, support Hasina. The support for Yunus seems to be very less and hence he is not calling for an election. Remember he was not elected but came to power as a coup under the support for Amreeka because they needed a base in BD to keep a check on China.

3. India dont need a puppet in Bangladesh. Even when Hasina was in power, it was not benefitting India in anyway. Yes we had peaceful relation with Bangladesh but looks like bonafide extremists like you didn't fancy having a friendly relation with a kaffir nation.

4. Bangladesh was flourishing under Hasina, economically and as a country across every sector. It is a fact. It was proper democracy with equal rights for minorities, She stood for Bengali identity first...the very reason based on which Bangladesh was formed. You guys sitting in comforts of Canada couldnt digest it and decided to make it another Pakistan, the very country from which you took independence to get your own identity. Shameful stuff, isnt it?
 
Bangladesh supporters only saying
Sheikh Hasina government was evil and
Mohd Yunus govt is superb...

But no one answering why growth rate has fallen from 5.78 to 3.97 in Yunus government?

I haven't even checked this thread until today when I saw that it has reached over 100 posts. I surmised immediately that hindutva posters must have been rage-posting furiously for it to catch fire as it has done.

Yup.

I honestly don't know what they are looking to achieve. They want Bangladesh to go back to old status quo I guess. But, that's unlikely to happen in the present or in the future.

I don't read 99.99% of the stuff they write. It is just stupid.

Hasina is in india and Bangladesh has no means to reach her

Bangladesh wont get hasina and they can’t do jack about it deal with it
 
They can reject all they want.

Their party is unlikely to return to power again. People of Bangladesh are unlikely to allow that.



Dr. Yunus is right.

Now India should return Hasina so that her execution can be performed.
India wont bo matter how much Yunus cries

India doesnnt need any puppet in bd , indua has enough cards to make any Bangladesh government cooperate.

Essential supplies of Bangladesh flows through India anything thats available in eastern India can reach bd via road or rail in. A few hours, if india shuts the border it can halt essential supplies to bd.
 
Hasina Ji shouldn't be extradited to these radical Islamist clowns. The current circus in Bangladesh has zero credibility.

Why do you and Indians love her so much? Its idiotic to ruin relations with a neighbour for some old woman with one leg in the grave.

Why would Bangladesh want her back? The humane thing to do would be India to bring all her relatives over to India as well so she won't feel lonely. That way a new chapter of Hasina's Muslim family can begin a new on Indian territory spreading far and wide through India.

Because India maintained good relationship with Bangladesh under Hasina regime... India likes neighbors who are doing the business and trade....

India defeats neighbor who is supporting only terrorism

She and Modi will be dead, one in the ground ,the other into ashes soon. Bangladesh is an important neighbour, trade and business will suffer if she is kept safe. It makes no sense, unless she is the real love of Modi, since his wife is never to be seen?

Which is heavily in their favour and at same time pumping pro hindutva propaganda.
 
Good afternoon bro. You should continue to guide me how to get European wife. Leave these topics pls and focus on bigger things.

:rp :kp

Sorry to inform, Hasina has more chance of returning to India, than you do pulling a white European female. Go back to the village in India and find a local Hindu girl.

Bangladesh has already proven itself to anti-Bharat since Yunus came to power, denying extradition makes zero difference.

Old man Yunus has one leg in the grave too, it's better to wait out this period before Hasina's return to Bangladesh. Current regime is nothing but a bunch of murderous mob.

You clearly dont understand geo politics and seem to be another rabid RSS fanboy. One woman is not worth the worsening of relations between a neighbour.

The truth is , RSS religious extremists are unhappy Bangladeshis woke up, kicked this puppet out and now want to live how they want, not having puppet rulers of Hindu extremists.

But maybe you're right, India is 3rd world and will stay 3rd world for another half a century at least, so makes little difference.

In fact Muslim world is divided in progressive and communal & fascist
 
India should send her away somewhere .. it's not worth ruining relations with Bangladesh for her; maybe Maldives will take her.

India is a 3rd world dirty smelly dump. India is all about quantity over quality.

Bangladesh do not really need India for anything. India always rip countries off when it comes to trade. They ripped off USA too and Trump was trying to correct that.

Bangladesh's biggest trading partner (and also biggest military partner) is China. China is the real deal and they have a lot to offer. India is overrated and fake.

Bangladesh should be in good books of China, Pakistan, Turkey, gulf states, USA, Russia, Japan, South Korea, and Europe. India is irrelevant.

Jadhav is still in Pakistan's prison as should Haseena be for the crimes she has been charged.
 
Business and trade always favor both countries.... Every county doing business n trade in their profit, not in opposite countries favor

That is assuming both countries have a leader looking out for their own national interests. In Bangladesh's case, both leaders were looking out for Indian interests.

A Bangadeshi associate told me that Hasina was handing out prime contracts to Indian firms instead of Bangladeshi ones. I guess that is the price of doing business with BJP.

This is true.

Hasina was effectively selling Bangladesh to India. Piece by piece.

A traitor like her deserved to be hanged a long time ago.

What opportunity, he was caught red handed, did you expect Pakistan to send him back to India to stand the trial?

India has the largest communal and racist incident in the entire sub-continent.

The international court of justice put a stay on any punishment of kulbhushan jadhav, tells u how credible Pakistani system is in the eyes of the world
 
Human rights watch is a ngo it has no value as any investigator
What a stupid take but I’m not surprised since it’s coming from you. HRW carries out research, reporting etc. on human rights issues and it has established/qualified lawyers, journalists and researchers. Its findings are used by governments, academics, policymakers, courts and the UN.

No matter how much they whine and cry, they are unlikely to get their puppet (Hasina) back. :inti

As a matter of fact, India may never get a puppet in Bangladesh again. They became quite isolated regionally and globally.

HRW is the one that has called this verdict not fair as per International laws..

 
Keep on crying, Indians. We are just getting started.

Hasina's wrongdoings are all documented. Bangladesh do not need approvals from Indians.

Now return her so that we can go to next stage. :inti

I wasn’t arguing about that. I myself disagreed with the way it has been handled, hence my suggestion of taking it to the ICC for legitimacy. My argument was more about HRW as being a legitimate organisation with credible history of investigating and that they have stated that Hasina carried out human rights violations.

They are kind of joke if you ask me. If they were legitimate governing body, Bush, Cheney, Blair and go would've gotten at least jail time for invading another country on false pretense.
 
Bangladesh must neutralize and criminalize Awami League. This party has worked for India since 1971 or even before. They don't work for Bangladesh.

About time these snakes are neutralized once and for all. Not minor neutralization. Not partial neutralization. A complete neutralization (whatever that means).

Except Yunus , BD political parties/Army/Establishment work for India or Pakistan-US or China..

Even Yunus will not be able to change that as it decades to setup independent institutions
 
I didnt check what he is saying. I dont really care about BD governments and who is in charge. I want the political corruption to end no matter who is in charge. I also want BD to go new heights economically and in developments.

If we want Bangladesh to be corruption-free, we have to ensure Awami League and BNP do not come to power.

NCP seems like a great option. It is the new party formed by those who overthrew Hasina.

I guess we need new parties.

They are influenced by China as China is their biggest economic/military partner. USA also have influence. Pakistan may have influence now that Hasina is gone.

Anyway, we don't want any further Indian influence. India have a rogue government now. Maybe if BJP/Modi leaves, there is a chance. :inti

Unfortunately it’s the best we have and we should try to work within this system as much as possible. I agree with you that the likes of Cheney have gotten away with illegal invasions, breaking international law and human rights violations.

The biggest issue with the UN is the veto the 5 permanent members of the UN Security Council have. So there are only 2 ways a country can invade another country, either for self-defence or if the UN Security Council votes and allows it. The US invaded Iraq illegally as there was no self-defence and it was not approved by the UN Security Council. When a country does this, they can be taken to the ICJ for violations and breaking international law, but Iraq did not take the US to court as this was a new Iraqi government supported by the US. However, the ICJ’s decision is not binding and only the UN Security Council can mandate penalties. So even if the US breached international law and the ICJ found it guilty, it would just veto any motion on itself.

Also, you have to realise that not every country is a member of the ICC. The US isn’t a member as it unsigned the Rome Statute and neither is Iraq. Bangladesh is a member of the ICC as it signed the Rome Statute and therefore ICC has jurisdiction over it.
