Sheikh Hasina Demands Justice Post-Resignation Amidst Violent Unrest

Sheikh Hasina, Bangladesh's deposed prime minister, has called for justice following her ouster amid violent protests. Hasina demanded investigations and consequences for those responsible for recent violence. She mourned the loss of lives and the burning of the Bangabandhu Museum, urging Bangladeshis to observe the national mourning day peacefully.

Sheikh Hasina, Bangladesh's ousted prime minister, demanded justice on Tuesday for the recent violent acts that led to several deaths and extensive vandalism. She called for investigations and punishment for those responsible.

In her first public statement since her resignation on August 5, Hasina, 76, highlighted lives lost during agitations since July. She resigned and fled to India following deadly student-led protests against a controversial job quota system.

Expressing grief for the victims, including students, teachers, and policemen, Hasina urged Bangladeshis to peacefully observe August 15, the national mourning day, despite the interim government cancelling it. Hasina mourned the burning of the Bangabandhu Museum, once her father's residence, during the unrest. She appealed for justice and respect for those who lost their lives.
