Sheikh Hasina Plans December Return to Bangladesh to Surrender, Fearing She May Be Killed
Hindustan Times—Exiled former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina told Reuters she plans to return to Bangladesh by December alongside party colleagues to surrender to authorities, despite saying she fears for her life. "They may kill me," Hasina said, adding she wants any death "to come on own soil." Hasina fled to India after being ousted in a popular uprising in 2024 and has since been in exile. Her Awami League party colleagues would surrender with her. Bangladeshi authorities have issued multiple arrest warrants against her in connection with the crackdown on protesters that precipitated her fall.
