UN says Sheikh Hasina’s crackdown may be crime against humanity

Up to 1,400 people were killed last year in anti -government protests in Bangladesh, most of their security forces are estimated by the United Nations.

UN Human Rights Researchers accused the overthrown government Sheikh Hasina The tough response they warn can mean “crimes against humanity.”

They found a “official policy for attacking and severe repression of anti -government protesters and condolences”, designed to lead to power in the face of mass opposition.

Sheikh Hasina, who held the post of 15 years, escaped helicopter into India shortly before the crowds invaded her residence.

Another thousands were injured in the worst Bangladesh violence, which he saw after the War for Independence in 1971.

Protests under the guidance of students against quotas in jobs in public service have grown into motion across the country to release the CU Hasina and its League Party Avas after the severe police repression.

UN investigators recorded firing in the blank range of some participants of the action, a deliberate collection of others, arbitrary arrests and torture.

Children were also aimed – up to 13% of the dead of 1400 were evaluated in the report, they were children.

The report was asked by Bangladesh Muhammad Yunus, leader of Bangladesh.

Although this attributes most of the violence with the government’s security forces, it also raises concern about the attacks on those who perceive supporters of the former government, as well as against some religious and ethnic groups.

They should also be investigated, the UN says.
