Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has announced plans to return from her self-imposed exile in India next month, defying a death sentence imposed following allegations tied to a violent crackdown. The move comes amid escalating political tensions in the country, where her government has faced widespread criticism over human rights abuses. Authorities have yet to clarify how her return will be handled, raising questions about her legal status and potential consequences. The decision marks a bold challenge to the current administration, which has pursued aggressive measures against opposition figures.
