Bangladesh Movement Leaders Threaten Police, Recall Past Violence After Government Ouster

Leaders of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, which recently toppled PM Sheikh Hasina's government, confronted police in Habiganj, Bangladesh, demanding the release of a detained former student leader. During the confrontation, a movement leader reportedly confessed to setting a police station ablaze and burning a police officer alive during previous anti-Hasina protests in August 2024. The group allegedly threatened further violence if their demands were not met, highlighting a breakdown in law and order following the government's fall.
