The move comes after a call for a commission to investigate the killing of protesters and establish national unity.
The interim government of Bangladesh has banned the Awami League, the party of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, under the Anti-Terrorism Act amid ongoing protests demanding accountability for the deaths of hundreds of protesters. This decision follows the party’s previous designation as a “terrorist organization” and is part of broader reforms aimed at political stability, although critics label the government as illegitimate. Hasina, now in exile, faces serious allegations of murder linked to the protests that led to her ousting last year.
