Shattering the 'Beautiful Dream': The Retroactive Punishment of Bangladesh's Students and the Hypocrisy of 'Rule-Based Orders'
The Muhammad Yunus-led interim government in Bangladesh is retroactively and collectively punishing university students for their past affiliation with the Chhatra League, the Awami League's student wing, expelling them without due process, individual hearings, or convictions, destroying their futures and pushing many to the brink of suicide.
