Hasina Slams Yunus as 'Murderous Fascist' in Fiery Address from India

  • Former PM Sheikh Hasina, in her first public address since her 2024 ouster, attacked Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus, calling his regime "illegal, violent."
  • Speaking via audio to the Foreign Correspondents' Club in Delhi, she described Bangladesh as an "age of terror, lawlessness and democratic exile."
  • Hasina labeled Yunus a "murderous fascist," "usurer," and "power-hungry traitor," alleging her removal was a "meticulously engineered conspiracy."
  • She accused Yunus of pushing Bangladesh towards "multinational conflict" by bartering resources to foreign interests.
  • Hasina outlined five demands: removal of Yunus's administration, end to violence, safety for minorities, end to politically motivated lawfare, and a UN investigation into recent events.

Why It Matters: Sheikh Hasina launched a scathing attack on Muhammad Yunus, demanding his removal and a return to democracy.
