Mob Justice Replaces Courts in Bangladesh Under New Government
Since a change in government in Bangladesh, things have become dangerous.
Instead of courts, angry mobs are now punishing people.
Many people have been killed by these mobs.
The people in charge of the courts are scared.
Lawyers who supported the old government are being targeted.
The new government, led by Yunus, seems to be treating people unfairly, letting their supporters go free while punishing others.
A new plan for the country is also causing arguments, potentially changing how Bangladesh is run and its identity.
Mob violence has surged in Bangladesh since August 2024, with 174 deaths reported by May 2025.
Victims of mob violence include political workers and small vendors, with some killed on court premises.
The judicial system has been significantly weakened, with judges hesitant to preside and lawyers targeted.
The Yunus-led government has been accused of selective justice, including acquitting Yunus of charges.
A controversial 'July Charter' threatens the Constitution, challenging the nation's identity.
