Former Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina has been sentenced to death. Controversy arose when assets worth Rs 284 crore of one of his servants came to light. This revelation raised many questions regarding Hasina’s declared assets and her real assets.
New Delhi. Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been sentenced to death by the International Crimes Tribunal of Bangladesh, i.e. ICT, after finding her guilty in three serious cases. Sheikh Hasina had to flee to Delhi on 5 August 2024 after the student revolt in Bangladesh. Hasina, who has been in power since 2009, has been the country’s longest serving PM. After his departure, the discussion has intensified regarding his tenure and personal property. Meanwhile, a shocking report has come out in which it has been claimed that an employee working in his house is the owner of Rs 284 crore.
Hasina asked for investigation on servant’s property worth Rs 284 crore
According to reports, Jahangir Alam, who worked at Hasina’s residence, has been found with huge assets and is currently living in America. After such a huge amount came to light, Hasina herself ordered an investigation into the matter. The huge difference between Alam’s wealth and Hasina’s declared net worth has raised many questions in the minds of people, especially at a time when the country is going through political turmoil.
Hasina’s declared assets are only Rs 3.14 crore
According to the affidavit filed in the 2024 general elections, Sheikh Hasina has total assets worth Rs 3.14 crore. His main source of income is agriculture, which includes six acres of land and fish farming. Apart from this, he also has a car which was given to him as a gift. While being the Prime Minister, his annual salary was around Rs 9.93 lakh. These figures have deepened the question as to how one of his employees came to possess such huge wealth.
Demand for transparency increased in political crisis
Amidst the ongoing political crisis in Bangladesh, this issue became the center of discussion among the people. The questions being raised about Hasina’s long rule, her family history and now her wealth further heated the political atmosphere. Experts say that these revelations will further increase the pressure on transparency and accountability. At present, the entire country is waiting to know what is the truth about the servant’s property and in what direction this matter moves forward.
