Massive Protests In Bangladesh After Osman Hadi's Death: A Timeline
Violent protests broke out in several cities in Bangladesh overnight after the death of radical leader Sharif Osman Hadi. A polarising figure known for his strong anti-India rhetoric, Hadi, 32, gained prominence during Bangladesh's 2024 student uprising that led to the ouster of former premier Sheikh Hasina. The spokesperson for the Inquilab Mancha platform and a candidate in the general elections was shot in the head by masked assailants last Friday while launching his election campaign in Dhaka and died during treatment in a hospital in Singapore.
