Bangladesh plunged into political crisis last month after the country saw widespread violent protests. The stir forced Sheikh Hasina to resign as Prime Minister and flee the country. The protests initially began as an agitation against a job quota scheme but weeks later turned into a mass movement demanding Hasina’s ouster from power. Hasina fled the country and came to India.

Murder or cardiac arrest?

The Awami League leader was allegedly strangled, sources said, citing his postmortem report. However, initial reports suggested that Panna could have suffered a heart attack while trying to cross the border. Some reports also claimed that he might have been involved in a shooting incident with the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB), police said. SP Giri Prasad on Wednesday said that the body has been sent to Khliehriat Civil Hospital for further identification.
