- A Dhaka court sentenced Hasina to death in absentia in November 2025 for crimes against humanity over the crackdown on the 2024 protests.
- On November 10, 2026, Bangladesh’s government urged Hasina to seek extradition from India; India said Bangladesh’s extradition request was under review.
- The prosecutor said the appeal deadline had passed and Hasina would face execution of the death sentence if she returned.
- A Supreme Court lawyer said Hasina would be arrested upon entering Bangladesh.
Sheikh Hasina is a Bangladeshi citizen and she can enter Bangladesh through whatever means available to her—but as soon as she enters Bangladesh, she will be arrested.— Lawyer Ahsanul Karim said this in reference to Hasina's possible return to Bangladesh.
