In Bangladesh, the interim government has enacted a ban on all activities of the Awami League in response to massive protests demanding its prohibition, linked to a special tribunal's investigations into last year's violence. While not completely outlawed, the ban affects all operations, including online. This move is aimed at ensuring security and protecting witnesses associated with the inquiry. The Awami League, led by Sheikh Hasina, has a longstanding political presence, but Hasina's ousting and subsequent exile have amplified calls for accountability and reform, with new student-led groups at the forefront of these demands.
The interim government in Bangladesh decided to ban the Awami League's activities, citing national security and the protection of those involved in the ongoing tribunal.
Observers note that the Awami League's tumultuous history continues to impact politics, with recent protests against the party led by student groups and supported by Islamists.
