Human Rights Watch on #humanrights in #Bangladesh under the Dr. #Yunus-Led Interim Govt: 

Crackdown on pro-AL journalists, arbitrary arrests of political activists, failure of due processes, mob-attacks, politically motivated violence, and attacks on minorities.

In their latest report on Bangladesh, HRW states on the rights situation in “new” Bangladesh: 

“…a disturbingly familiar pattern of security force abuses and political reprisals has reemerged, this time targeting perceived #AwamiLeague supporters. Groups promoting extremist Islam are attacking minorities, particularly those from #Hindu and #Ahmadiyya communities. #Ethnic minorities in Chittagong Hill Tracts endure continued discrimination and violence by the authorities. While the interim government has introduced a new ordinance to replace an abusive law used to crush freedom of speech under AL, the new law unfortunately replicates many of the same harmful provisions.”
