Former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been sentenced to six months in jail by the International Crimes Tribunal for contempt of court.
The verdict comes after a leaked audio call revealed Hasina allegedly mocking the judiciary and referencing a “license to kill” 227 people during the 2024 protests.
The sentencing marks the first official ruling since her ouster and escape last year following mass student-led demonstrations.
Former student leader Shamil Bulbul was also sentenced to two months.
Defense lawyers call the charges politically motivated, while prosecutors hint at more charges to come.
