Hasina the PM on the run will stay in India before going to UK. The Indian government has granted former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina an interim stay following the collapse of her government in the South Asian country.
She was facing unprecedented anti-government protests, and is on her way to London through India.
Currently, there has been no confirmation from the UK government regarding the grant of political asylum for the former Bangladesh Prime Minister, Daily Sun reported.
Hasina is seeking asylum in the UK, with her sister Rehana, a UK citizen, accompanying her.
Rehana, the younger daughter of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the “Father of Bangladesh,” and Sheikh Fazilatun Necha Mujib, is also the younger sister of Sheikh Hasina. Her daughter, Tulip Siddiq, serves as a member of the British Parliament representing the Labour Party.
