Dhaka needs to shun politics of retribution
Hindustan Times
|November 12, 2024
Bangladesh's interim government led by Muhammad Yunus, which has shown very few signs of effectively tackling major problems confronting the country, intends to approach Interpol to arrest and bring back former premier Sheikh Hasina and other members of her administration.
-
On Sunday, activists of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and the Jamaat-e-Islami thwarted the first rally planned by Hasina's Awami League party. The Yunus government is also seeking to impose a ban on the Awami League.
Meanwhile, the Awami League has approached the International Criminal Court (ICC), accusing Yunus and others in the caretaker establishment of crimes against humanity, including genocide and oppression of minorities and Awami League activists.
