'May be jailed, but I’ll return to Bangladesh this December,' says Sheikh Hasina

Sheikh Hasina declared she is not afraid of arrest upon her return to Bangladesh in December. She stated her return is for the nation's future and to set it on the right track. Dhaka reacted sharply, calling her an absconding convicted genocider and expressing regret over the event. Hasina described the July Uprising as a regime change operation orchestrated by a mastermind.
