Bangladesh Turmoil: Blood In Yunus' Hands?
Days after Bangladesh student leader Sharif Osman Hadi died after being shot in the head in Dhaka, his brother has accused a section within the Muhammad Yunus-led interim government of orchestrating the assassination to derail the upcoming national election in February.
Sharif Osman Hadi, the spokesperson of Inquilab Moncho, a cultural organisation born out of the 2024 July uprising that led to former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's ouster, was shot at close range in Dhaka on December 12. He was airlifted to Singapore, where he died during treatment on December 18. Osman Hadi's killing triggered violent protests, with mobs targeting the offices of prominent newspapers and cultural organisations.
