Some say the brutal act pushed her to consolidate unprecedented power
DHAKA, Bangaladesh — Sheikh Hasina, the longest-serving prime minister in Bangladesh ’s history , resigned and fled the country on Monday, bringing a tumultuous end to her 15-year rule as an extraordinary wave of protest succeeded in toppling her government.
Hasina first became prime minister in 1996, and then returned in 2008 to win the office she held until Monday. . It was also what motivated her throughout her political career, analysts say. After the assassination, Hasina lived for years in exile in India, then made her way back to Bangladesh and took over the Awami League. But the country’s military rulers had her in and out of house detention all through the 1980s until, after a general election in 1996, she became prime minister for the first time.
The two traded blame as the recent protests turned violent. The BNP, which backed the student protesters, repeated calls for Hasina to step down while she accused them of stoking the violence.
