Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina told her supporters that she will come back to her country and those targeting her party Awami League members will be brought to justice.

Allah kept me alive for a reason and the day will come when justice will be brought, the Awami League president, who escaped to India after a nationwide movement ousted her from power, said while interacting with family members of her party leaders during a social media interaction.

Targeting Muhammad Yunus, chief advisor of the interim government in Bangladesh, she said that he is “someone who never loved the people".

Sheikh Hasina said, “He loaned out small amounts at high interest rates and used the money to live lavishly abroad. We could not understand his duplicity then, so we helped him a lot. But people did not benefit. He did well for himself. Then developed a lust for power that is burning Bangladesh now."

Bangladesh has now turned into a “terrorist country", she said, adding, “Our leaders and workers are being killed in a way that cannot be described. Awami League, cops, lawyers, journalists, artists, everyone is being targeted."

The former Prime Minister also alleged a media clampdown in Bangladesh. She said, “Rapes, murders, dacoities, nothing can be reported. And if it is reported, the TV channel or newspaper will be targeted."

Sheikh Hasina said, “I lost my father, mother, brother, everyone in one day. And then they did not let us return to the country. I know the pain of losing your own. Allah keeps protecting me, maybe he wants to get some good done through me. Those who have committed these crimes must be punished. This is my pledge."
