Bangladesh to Protect July Warriors from Prosecution

Bangladesh to Protect July Warriors from Prosecution

The government in Bangladesh is planning to make a new rule to protect the people who helped in the protests last July.

These protests were very big and even made the old leader, Sheikh Hasina, step down.

The government wants to make sure these protesters, called 'July warriors,' don't get in trouble for what they did.

They are looking at a similar rule made after the country's independence war in 1971.

This idea came after two of these warriors were arrested recently, which made other protesters very upset.

The government is now working on this new rule to keep the warriors safe from being punished.
