What did the UN rights report reveal about killings during Bangladesh's July uprising?
The UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) estimated that approximately 1,400 people were killed over a 45-day period, with the vast majority shot by Bangladeshi security forces. UN Rights Chief Volker Turk stated there were reasonable grounds to believe the previous government led by Sheikh Hasina was not only aware of these killings but was actually involved in them. The report directly implicates the former government in these mass killings, providing a basis for the BNP's calls for Hasina's extradition from India to face prosecution.
