Bangladesh's former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina says she will return to the country in December despite receiving a death sentence in absentia after being convicted over her government's deadly crackdown on protesters in 2024 – which she said is politically motivated. The 78-year-old, who has spent the past two years in exile in India, also called for the ban on her Awami League party to be lifted and said she was prepared to face prison or even death if she returns. Hasina made the remarks in an audio address during a media event in New Delhi, on the second anniversary of the student-led uprising that led to her being ousted from power. #HasinaSheikh #Bangladesh #Dhaka #AwamiLeague #C4News
