Dhaka: A big news has come out amid the uproar in Bangladesh. The President has ordered the release of jailed former PM and opposition leader Khaleda Zia. Apart from this, another big update has come from the army. The army has said that the curfew in Bangladesh will end on Tuesday morning. Schools and businesses will reopen.

Sheikh Hasina’s son’s statement also came out

Sajeeb Wazed Joy, son of former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, said on Monday that his mother would no longer return to politics. Joy, a former official advisor to Hasina, said that his mother left the country for her safety at the request of the family. Hasina (76 years old) resigned amid massive protests against her government and left for London.

In an interview to ‘Newshour’ on BBC World Service, Joy said that there will be no political comeback for her mother. She said that Hasina was considering resigning since Sunday and left the country for her safety after the family’s insistence.

According to the news, Joy said that her mother, who ruled Bangladesh for 15 years, was very disappointed that despite her hard work, people stood up against her. Expressing Hasina’s disappointment, she said, ‘She has changed Bangladesh. When she took power, it was considered a failed nation. It was a poor country. But today it was considered one of the emerging countries in Asia. She is very disappointed.’

On Sunday, there was a clash between protesters demanding Hasina’s resignation and ruling Awami League supporters in different parts of Bangladesh. This clash happened a few days after more than 200 people were killed in violent clashes between police and mostly student protesters. At least 300 people have been killed in the country within a fortnight. Rejecting allegations that the government was too heavy-handed in dealing with protesters, Joy said, “Policemen have been beaten to death, 13 died yesterday alone. When the mob is beating people to death, what do you expect from the police?”
