In a move to quell rising unrest, Bangladesh's law enforcement agencies initiated 'Operation Devil Hunt' on Saturday. The operation follows violent clashes in Gazipur, pitting local residents against student groups opposing Sheikh Hasina.
An urgent meeting at the Ministry of Home Affairs orchestrated the operation after terrorist attacks on students occurred Friday night in Gazipur, leaving nearly 15 students injured. 'Operation Devil Hunt' seeks to stabilize law and order and bring perpetrators to justice across the nation.
