Tarique Rahman News | Who Is Tarique Rahman, BNP Leader Who Returned To Bangladesh After 17 Years

After 17 years in exile, Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) acting chief Tarique Rahman returned to Dhaka on Thursday, marking a major development in Bangladesh’s political landscape ahead of the February elections. Son of former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia and BNP founder Ziaur Rahman, the 60-year-old leader is widely seen as a frontrunner for the prime minister’s post. His return follows his acquittal in corruption and assassination-related cases after the fall of Sheikh Hasina’s government during last year’s student-led July Uprising.
