Yunus ‘Usurer, Terrorist Leader’! Bangladesh in turmoil over girl’s rape case, Hasina criticizes government in late-night audio message

In a nearly 9-minute audio message, Sheikh Hasina expressed concerns about rising violence against women in Bangladesh. She claimed that Bangladesh is gradually falling behind in terms of women’s safety and other indicators.

The former Prime Minister of Bangladesh, Sheikh Hasina, has raised her voice against the growing incidents of violence against women and rape in the country. In this context, she criticized the interim government headed by Muhammad Yunus, calling him an “usurer” and “terrorist leader.” She said, “The country is now led by an usurer, a terrorist leader Yunus.” This news was reported by India’s Anandabazar Patrika.

On Sunday night, Hasina’s party, the Awami League, released an audio message on social media. In the 9-minute audio, Hasina expressed her concern about violence against women and criticized the interim government led by Yunus. She stated that Bangladesh, once considered a “model” country, is now falling behind in terms of women’s safety and other standards.

Last Thursday, an 8-year-old girl was allegedly raped in Magura, Bangladesh, sparking public outrage. The Bangladesh High Court has ordered the completion of the trial process within six months, but protests and demonstrations continue across the country.

At the beginning of her statement, Hasina said, “Many women have chanted slogans to bid me farewell. After I am gone, look at the situation of Bangladesh. Today, women have no respect.” She claimed that the current government dictates what women should wear or whether they can leave their homes. Referring to the Awami League era, she recalled, “We brought strict laws to stop violence against women. We ensured that the names of criminals would be made public, and strict punishments were put in place.”

Hasina then attacked the head of the interim government, Muhammad Yunus, stating, “Yunus talks about women’s empowerment and poverty alleviation, but where are the actual results?” She claimed that even during protests in July-August, her government remained tolerant and listened to the protesters, whereas under Yunus, no one could protest.

In light of the growing incidents of violence and rape against women in Bangladesh, the country’s political situation has been heated in recent days. Several news outlets in Bangladesh, citing police headquarters’ data, reported that an average of 12 rape cases were filed every day in February. In this context, Hasina’s message, right after International Women’s Day, aimed at the interim government: “We must save the country from Yunus and protect the dignity of women.”
