Bangladesh: Citing 'dangerous decline' of human rights, experts urge key reforms

UN independent human rights experts on Wednesday urged the Government of Bangladesh to undertake key reforms to reverse 'repressive trends' and restore dialogue.

The Human Rights Council-appointed experts' call follows on from the election victory of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina earlier this month, who secured a controversial fourth term with the main opposition party deciding to boycott the poll.
