Sheikh Hasina announces intent to return to Bangladesh in December

Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina announced in a virtual press conference that she intends to return to Bangladesh in December 2024, despite the risks to her safety. Following her resignation and departure from office in August 2024, Hasina stated that she cannot remain away while her countrymen are suffering. Her announcement has since been challenged by Syed Moazzem Hossain Alal, an aide to Tarique Rahman, who questioned why she would wait until December if she has faith in the country's systems.
