Bury her, bury her!” and “Hasina-Modi, warning, be careful!” or “Naraye Takbeer, Allahu Akbar.” They were referring Narendra Modi, India’s prime minister, as Hasina is known to be a trusted ally of India. Yunus in an interview with the Press Trust of India, or PTI, news agency released Thursday said that Hasina should stay quiet, and that her political remarks from India are an “unfriendly gesture.” The protesters and other opponents of Hasina want her and her associates to stand trial for mass killings during the demonstrations that began in July. Yunus was apparently referring to Hasina’s statement on August 13 in which she demanded “justice”, saying those involved in recent “terror acts”, killings and vandalism must be investigated, identified and punished.
