DHAKA: (UrduPoint/Pakistan Point News-Oct 17th, 2024) Arrest warrants have been issued for former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina Wajid in connection with deaths during violent protests in Bangladesh.

According to a foreign news agency, the International Crimes Tribunal of Bangladesh has issued these warrants for Sheikh Hasina.

In addition to Sheikh Hasina, arrest warrants have also been issued for 45 other individuals, including close associates of the former Prime Minister.

The reports said that the warrants for Sheikh Hasina and others were issued in relation to deaths that occurred during recent violent protests in Bangladesh.
