A murder case has been filed against Bangladesh’s ousted PrimeMinister Sheikh Hasina and six others over the death of a grocery shop owner during last month’s violent clashes that led to the fall of her government, media reports said on Tuesday.
The case was the first to be filed against Hasina, 76, after she resigned and fled to India last week following widespread protests against her Awami League-led government over a controversial job quota
system.
The other accused are Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader,former Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal, and former Inspector General of Police Chowdhury Abdullah Al Mamun, among others.
Besides, several unnamed high-ranking police officials and government officials were also accused in the case, according to the report.
