]]> Violence in Bangladesh ahead verdict has raised serious concerns across the country, with multiple incidents of arson and crude bomb attacks reported in Dhaka and nearby districts. The unrest comes just before a key court ruling involving former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, set to be delivered by the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT).

Over the past two days, Bangladesh has witnessed a sharp escalation in street violence. Several vehicles were torched, and crude bombs were thrown at security patrols as political tensions soared.

Authorities have deployed thousands of police officers and Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) personnel throughout Dhaka, turning the capital into a virtual fortress. The Awami League has announced a citywide lockdown in protest and solidarity with Hasina ahead of the verdict.

The tribunal will decide on the crimes against humanity case involving Hasina and several top party officials. Security has been tightened around the court complex as fears of clashes loom large.

Observers warn that the current violence in Bangladesh ahead verdict could further destabilize the fragile political environment, recalling the deadly 2024 student protests that claimed over 500 lives.

Transportation services have been disrupted, schools closed, and businesses shut down amid mounting unrest. Officials have urged the public to stay home as forces attempt to maintain order.

The verdict against Sheikh Hasina is expected to mark a turning point for Bangladesh’s political future, testing both the strength of its democratic institutions and the government’s ability to contain civil unrest.

]]> Over 150 serving and retired Bangladesh Army officers are under investigation by the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) for alleged human rights violations. The officers face accusations of enforced disappearances, student killings, and violence against dissenters. Sources suggest new charge sheets and arrest warrants could be issued between Tuesday and Thursday.

The ICT is also preparing charges against all army chiefs who served from 2009 to 2025. During last year’s anti-Hasina protests, hundreds of civilians and students reportedly died in clashes with security forces. The tribunal may also name top officials from the Air Force and Navy for their involvement.

Sources said the inquiry includes senior officials who held sensitive positions under Sheikh Hasina’s regime, including DGFI, NSI, and RAB. Two ISI officers reportedly arrived in Dhaka in August to coordinate with ICT investigators and advisors linked to the current interim government.

Investigators also warned of radicalised pro-Jamaat officers planning internal violence within the army. On Thursday, the ICT filed a charge sheet against 11 senior officers, including eight generals. Former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been named as the principal accused in the case.
