Bangladesh lawyers challenge ex-PM Hasina’s murder trial charges ...Middle East

The case stems from a violent crackdown on protesters last year, which reportedly left up to 1,400 dead.

Defence lawyer Md Amir Hossain argued that the charges were “false, fabricated and politically motivated,“ though he admitted he had not communicated directly with the former leader.

This development follows Hasina’s recent six-month sentence for contempt of court in a separate case on July 2.

The UN has documented the deaths during last year’s unrest, adding international scrutiny to the proceedings. - AFP
