Unrest in Bangladesh as Protesters Target Former Home of Sheikh Hasina

Protesters in Bangladesh have vandalized and set fire to the former family home of ex-prime minister Sheikh Hasina.

 This unrest was triggered by her announcement to address the nation via social media from India, where she has been in exile following her ousting by student-led protests last year.

At 77, Hasina, who governed Bangladesh for two decades, has faced criticism for her autocratic leadership style and the harsh suppression of dissent during her tenure.
