Police blocked a protest march toward the Indian High Commission in Dhaka, stopping demonstrators at North Badda and causing traffic disruption as protesters held an on-site rally.
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina alleged that deaths during the July 2024 protests were part of a planned conspiracy linked to Dr. Muhammad Yunus, urging a proper investigation.
Sheikh Hasina says Bangladesh is facing a deep democratic and constitutional crisis, accusing the interim Yunus government of political exclusion and “victor’s justice.”
Arrested journalist Anis Alamgir told a Dhaka court that Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus could “turn the entire country into a prison,” as police sought remand under anti-terror laws.
Senior journalist Anis Alamgir was taken to Dhaka’s Detective Branch from Dhanmondi on Sunday night, raising fresh concerns over press freedom during the interim government period.
