See Viral Photo: Woman In Dior Suitcase Smiles Amid Sheikh Hasina’s Residence Loot

As unrest grips Bangladesh, dramatic scenes have unfolded at Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s residence in Dhaka. Following Hasina’s resignation and departure from the country, hundreds of demonstrators stormed her palace, causing extensive damage and taking a wide array of items from the premises. The looters were seen stripping the property of clothing, kitchenware, blankets, and even food items such as fish, chicken, and rabbit.

Amid the chaos, a striking image has gone viral on social media: a woman in a blue suit, grinning broadly, is seen leaving Sheikh Hasina’s residence with a Dior suitcase. The photo captures her standing amidst the tumultuous crowd, clutching her designer bag as if untouched by the surrounding mayhem.

Sheikh Hasina and her sister boarded a military helicopter and fled the country on Monday, fleeing the violent quota protests that have gripped Dhaka. Her aircraft landed at Hindon Air Base in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, India, and she is expected to soon travel to London.

In the wake of the turmoil, Bangladesh Army Chief Gen. Waker-uz-Zaman has sought to reassure the public. He has promised that order will be restored and has engaged with opposition politicians and civil society leaders to discuss the formation of an interim government. Gen. Zaman also pledged a thorough investigation into the violent crackdown on student-led protests that fueled the current unrest. “Keep faith in the military; we will investigate all the killings and punish the responsible,” he assured, emphasizing that security forces have been instructed not to fire on crowds.
