Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami Chief Sparks Outrage with Remarks on Women

The leader of a political party in Bangladesh made some very upsetting comments about women.

He said that women should not be in leadership positions and compared women working outside the home to prostitutes.

This made many people in Bangladesh very angry, and there were protests.

Later, the leader said his social media account was hacked and someone else made those comments.

He also said his party respects women and wants to protect them.

This happened just before an important election in Bangladesh.

Some people remember that this party did bad things to women during a war a long time ago.
