We would like first to express our deep sorrow at the tragic events of last summer and the loss of life that occurred.

We believe the decisions made at the time by senior government officials were proportionate, taken in good faith, and aimed a...
We would like to reiterate our condemnation over the fact that scores of fake audio clips claiming to include voice of our president Sheikh Hasina have been manufactured and circulated on social media ostensibly by pro regime supporters and reproduced by media outlets to stage a media trial with wild claims like she authorized law enforc...

Today, blood is being spilled across Bangladesh—inside prisons, in courtrooms, on the streets, and in the hearts of innocent people. In today’s Bangladesh, the courtroom has become a death chamber for Awami League leaders and activists. Prisons have turned into death camps. And behind all of this, methodically pulling the strings, is none other ...
Awami League has strongly criticized Muhammad Yunus, the unelected Chief Adviser of Bangladesh’s interim government, for what it called a “humiliating and fruitless diplomatic tour” of the United Kingdom and Europe.

In the guise of “advisors”—Nahid Islam, Asif Mahmud Sajib Bhuiyan, and Nurjahan Begum—these individuals have built an empire of corruption, hiding behind their personal assistants, aides, and officials, siphoning off hundreds of crores of taka.
Since Dr. Muhammad Yunus seized power, the country’s economy has plunged into unprecedented disaster. Multiple credible sources confirm that over 10 trillion taka has been siphoned abroad through corruption and embezzlement during his tenure.
