Bangladeshi diaspora members protest against Muhammad Yunus government in Geneva

By IBNS
Oct 8, 2024 ..

The Bangladeshi diaspora members recently demonstrated against interim government chief Muhammad Yunus-led government in Geneva over the troubling political developments in the country.


The demonstration was hosted by members of the International Forum for Secular Bangladesh.

The event was titled “Aftermath of August 5: Crimes Against Humanity and Blatant Human Rights Abuses”.

The protesters gathered in solidarity, chanting slogans in support of Bangladesh’s former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and the nation’s founding leader, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, ANI news agency reported.

The protesters were seen holding banners and pamphlets against the Yunus-led government.

Rehman khalil ur Rehman, President of International Human Rights commission Geneva, told ANI, “As the Bangladeshi diaspora, we stand before the United Nations in Geneva to raise our voices against the Yunus regime, which relies on Islamic extremism. Bangladesh is no longer a country that embodies secularism; it is moving toward Islamic extremism and terrorism. Very soon, we may see several news reports from international media about extremism in Bangladesh.”

Nazrul Islam of the All European Awami League was quoted as saying by the news agency, “The current government in Bangladesh has no right to rule. Sheikh Hasina was elected to lead the country. Enemies of the nation have united and come to power. There is bloodshed and looting happening there. We gained our independence in 1971, and the symbols of that freedom are being eradicated. We have come here to raise awareness in the international community. We want Sheikh Hasina to return to Bangladesh.”

Bangladesh witnessed a severe political disruption in recent times when former PM Sheikh Hasina-led government was toppled amid violent protests against it.

Hasina fled to India.

Yunus took charge of the interim government following Hasina's ouster from the country.
