Bangladesh’s former prime minister Sheikh Hasina says she plans to return to the country in December, adding that she is prepared for possible consequences. She tells reporters she is “not afraid,” and says she understands the risks could include being killed, arrested, or tortured, while describing the trip as part of her responsibilities.
Outlets report that Hasina does not specify an exact date for her return. The coverage frames her remarks as a reaffirmation of a previously stated intention to go back in December, but details on the specific circumstances behind the alleged threats are not consistently provided in the accounts summarized here. The reporting focuses primarily on her stated determination to return and the warning of potential personal risks, rather than on new, independently verified developments.
Across the sources, the main points of agreement are the timing—December—and her insistence that she expects to face hostility or legal jeopardy upon returning. They also converge on the lack of a precise return date in the statements described.
