Former Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina and her government tried to cling on to power using systematic, deadly violence against protesters that could amount to "crimes against humanity", the UN has said.

DHAKA (AFP) – Bangladeshi police said yesterday more than 1,300 people have been arrested in a sweeping crackdown dubbed ‘Operation Devil Hunt’, targeting gangs allegedly connected to the ousted regime of Sheikh Hasina.

DHAKA (AP) – Bangladesh’s interim government headed by Nobel Peace laureate Muhammad Yunus said it will contain vandalism and arson taking place across the country. The development comes amid concern from a major opposition party over attacks on a historic house linked to ousted former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
