Human rights violations in 2015
daily star
It is heartening that Bangladesh made some notable progress in meeting its socio-economic targets in 2015, attaining, as it did, lower-middle income status and the title of the most successful country in South Asia in the area of agriculture and food security. However, we are deeply disturbed by the alarming decline in civic and political liberties in the country, as highlighted by prominent human rights watchdog, Ain O Salish Kendra, in its Human Rights Review Report 2015. The report notes that the past year was characterised by a shrinking space for freedom of expression and an increasing trend of political violence, extra-judicial killings, enforced disappearances, repression of minorities and violence against women and children.
