Sheikh Hasina Will Not Return to Politics, Says Son Sajeeb Wazed Joy

Sajeeb Wazed Joy, son of Sheikh Hasina, has ruled out any political comeback for his mother, stating she is “deeply disappointed” by the uprising against her leadership despite her efforts to transform Bangladesh.

In an interview with the BBC World Service’s Newshour program, Joy, who served as an official adviser to the former prime minister until Monday, said Hasina had been contemplating resignation since Sunday and left the country for her safety following pressure from her family.

“She has turned Bangladesh around. When she took over power, it was considered a failing state, a poor country. Until today, it was considered one of the rising tigers of Asia,” Joy said, defending his mother’s record in office.

Addressing allegations of excessive force against protesters, Joy said the government’s response had been justified given the violence faced by law enforcement. “Policemen have been beaten to death – 13 just yesterday. What do you expect the police to do when mobs are beating people to death?”
