## Bio

Born 28 September 1947 into the Sheikh family of Tungipara, Hasina had little presence in politics until her father Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Bangladesh's first president, was assassinated in 1975. She spent years in exile before returning in 1981 to lead the Awami League against military rule. Alongside rival Khaleda Zia, she helped drive the 1990 mass uprising that restored parliamentary democracy. After a first term as prime minister from 1996 to 2001, she won again in 2008, beginning a 15-year stretch marked by economic growth, major infrastructure projects, and mounting accusations of democratic backsliding, enforced disappearances, human rights abuses, and rigged elections in 2014, 2018, and 2024. In July 2024, security forces under her government killed hundreds during a crackdown on students protesting quota reforms; the movement grew into a national uprising that forced her resignation and flight to India. In November 2025, a Bangladeshi tribunal convicted her in absentia of crimes against humanity and sentenced her to death.
