Sheikh Hasina's Aide, Sentenced to Death, Accuses Muhammad Yunus of Plotting Civil War


A major political controversy is unfolding in Bangladesh after HT Imam, a close aide and political advisor to former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, made explosive allegations against Nobel laureate Dr. Muhammad Yunus. Imam, who was recently sentenced to death, has accused Yunus of orchestrating a conspiracy against him and of wanting to incite a civil war in the country.Speaking from his residence while out on bail, the senior Awami League leader claimed that his death sentence was a result of a politically motivated plot. He squarely placed the blame on Dr. Yunus, alleging that the Grameen Bank founder harbors a deep-seated desire to destabilize the nation. "Yunus wants a civil war... he wants to see dead bodies lying on the streets of Dhaka," Imam stated, accusing the Nobel laureate of trying to create widespread unrest.Imam further alleged that Dr. Yunus is being supported by both domestic and international entities who are working against the interests of Bangladesh. This stunning accusation comes amid a charged political climate and highlights the bitter rivalry between Sheikh Hasina's Awami League and supporters of Dr. Yunus, who was recently appointed to head an interim government.The death sentence handed to HT Imam has intensified the political animosity. His public statement directly targeting Dr. Yunus has added a new, dangerous dimension to the ongoing power struggle, portraying the conflict not just as a political rivalry, but as a battle for the nation's stability.
