Dhaka. A new case has been registered against ousted Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and 58 others for allegedly attempting to murder a student during last month’s violent clashes, according to a media report. This is the latest in a series of cases filed against the country’s former prime minister (76).

Which includes 136 cases of murder, seven of crimes against humanity and genocide, three of kidnapping, eight of attempted murder and one case of attack on Bangladesh Nationalist Party procession. According to the statement recorded under the case, the protesters were attacked with firearms and weapons due to which Fahim suffered several injuries. 59 people including Hasina, former whip Iqbalur Rahim and Dinajpur Sadar Upazila president Imdad Sarkar have been made accused in this case.
