‘Bringing them to justice’: B’desh seeks UN help to probe killing of student leader Hadi

Bangladesh’s interim government has formally requested UN human rights assistance for a fair probe into student leader Sharif Osman Hadi’s killing. Hadi, a prominent protest figure, died after being shot during an election event. Dhaka police filed charges against 17, alleging political vengeance linked to the Awami League, a claim Hadi’s party disputes, citing state agency involvement.
