The legal and political troubles of former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina are increasing continuously. Now a commission investigating the 16-year-old Bangladesh Rifles (BDR) insurgency has made shocking claims. According to the commission, Sheikh Hasina was allegedly behind the bloody rebellion in 2009, in which several top military officers were murdered.

The AFP report said that the Commission has also alleged in its investigation that India had a role in this conspiracy to weaken the Bangladesh Army. The findings of the report released on Sunday put new pressure on 78-year-old Hasina, who is already facing death sentence on charges of “crimes against humanity” over the government crackdown on last year’s student protests.

74 people lost their lives

This new front against Hasina has opened after the interim government working under the chairmanship of Nobel laureate Mohammad Yunus, in which a commission was constituted to re-investigate the BDR insurgency after being ousted from power. This rebellion, which started from Dhaka in 2009, spread across the country in two days and took the lives of 74 people. This incident happened just a few weeks after Hasina’s return.

Commission chief made a big claim

Commission chief A.L.M. Fazlur Rehman has claimed that the Awami League government of that time was directly involved in this rebellion. Describing former MP Fazle Noor Tapas as the main coordinator of this conspiracy, he alleged that Tapas implemented this plan at the behest of Hasina.

Claims of Indian role have made the matter more serious. Rehman said that clear evidence has been found of the involvement of a foreign power and openly took the name of India. According to him, 921 Indians had entered Bangladesh at the time of the rebellion, of which 67 had no records, which has been presented as evidence of the Indian role. There has been no official response from India on these allegations yet.

Sheikh Hasina living in India since 2024

It is worth noting that Sheikh Hasina had gone to India after the massive protests in July-August 2024, due to which relations between the two countries are already tense. After the release of the commission’s report, Yunus said that now the truth has come out.
