Bangladesh: BNP's Tarique Rahman pays tribute at Hadi’s grave amid tight security
BNP acting chairman Tarique Rahman visited Dhaka University to pray at the graves of slain student leader Sharif Osman Hadi and national poet Kazi Nazrul Islam amid heavy security. Rahman's return after 17 years in exile is seen as a major shift in Bangladeshi politics ahead of the February elections. Hadi's recent killing, following his role in the July 2024 uprising, has intensified political unrest and protests in Bangladesh.
