Sajeeb Wazed, son of exiled former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, warned that a tribunal is likely to convict her of crimes against humanity, potentially leading to a death sentence, while asserting her safety in India. He threatened that supporters of the Awami League will block upcoming elections unless the party’s ban is lifted, amid escalating violence in Dhaka with bombings and arson attacks. The interim government has suspended the Awami League’s registration, citing security threats, while Wazed claims the actions are politically motivated. As tensions rise, concerns about state violence under the interim government persist, with elections scheduled for February 2026.
