Bangladeshi all-round cricket great and political figure
Hasina has addressed journalists in Delhi on the second anniversary of Bangladesh’s uprising, insisting she will return to Bangladesh and rejoin politics. Bangladesh’s government seeks extradition, while India says the request is under examination. A memorial museum marks the uprising, and protests in Dhaka have intensified. The region’s relations are scrutinised as Hasina’s return looms.
Shakib Al Hasan, once a Bangladeshi cricket captain and former Awami League figure, has been living abroad since the 2024 ouster of Hasina’s government. He says he hopes to return if security is guaranteed, while Hasina plans to come back in December amid ongoing legal probes and political tension.
