Bangladesh’s Law Minister M Asaduzzaman says former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is likely to be arrested immediately upon her return to Bangladesh, marking her first public appearance since her ouster. Asaduzzaman previously stated that if Hasina arrives, the arrest could happen at once before she is given the opportunity to surrender directly to a court. The statement frames the expected process as one where law enforcement takes custody first, rather than allowing her to appear first in court for surrender. The comments are tied to reports that Hasina may return on Wednesday, which would coincide with the first time she is seen publicly after being removed from office. The minister’s remarks do not provide details on the timing or specific legal steps beyond the sequence of arrest first and surrender to court thereafter. No additional information on the underlying charges, the location of arrival, or the logistics of any court process is included in the cited reporting.
